Hey Product Hunt community! 👋
I’m Tom, co-founder of Lemio, the first screen time app that actually works and is not annoying! 🎉
First of all, big shoutout to Rohan Chaubey (@rohanrecommends) for hunting us. Follow this guy, he always has top notch recommendations!
🙋 Why did we create Lemio?
We are glued to our phones. And in a way that's fine, because for us it's the most amazing tool ever built.
BUT: The habit of using your phone like a Swiss Army knife is exploited by some tech companies. They tell you their solutions are free, but in reality they steal your time. We want to change that and reinvent the use of the phone to unlock everyone's full potential.
❓ What makes Lemio different?
You may have tried other screen time apps, blockers, passwords, accountability apps, etc. They all fail because they get annoying super fast. Plus, when you're blocked without any alternative or opportunity for growth, it's like your parents telling you you su*** at school without helping you improve.
Lemio is all about 100% INTENTIONAL PHONE USE:
🔎 Intentional Use
Select for how long you want to go in to avoid getting lost scrolling.
⏱️ Screen Time in Real Time
Always see your screen time in Dynamic Island when using distracting apps.
📅 Priority Planning
Plan just one important thing for the day that will improve your life. We help you execute it.
🔐 Customized Locks
Decide when (= schedules) you want to block and how restrictive you want it to be.
🚨 Exceptions prove the rule
Screen time rules are great, but then life happens. That is why we have emergency opens beyond daily limits and the ability to extend sessions via notifications.
🔨 Stuff you know from other apps
Focus Timer, Breathing Exercise, Wait to Unlock, …
✨Why Lemio stands out?
All other apps rely on your willpower in those moments when you are the worst version of yourself (mentally and physically). That's cruel and unsustainable. Lemio is the only screen time app that ensures you need no or less willpower to resist.
We mostly want to help you with:
- Saving time
- Being in control of your life
- Starting to do things you were putting off

I’ve been using it for months, and it has completely transformed the way I interact with my phone. Not only did it help me use my phone more intentionally, but it also made me painfully aware of my addictive habits—something I didn’t even realize before. The insights and gentle breathing nudges were exactly what I needed to regain control. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to be more mindful with their screen time!
This app has completely changed the way I manage my screen time! The intuitive interface makes it super easy to set limits and track usage, helping me stay focused and productive. I love the customizable features, like setting app-specific restrictions and scheduling screen-free hours.
Since using this app, I’ve noticed a huge improvement in my daily routine—I’m more mindful of my screen habits and have more time for other activities. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to take control of their screen time!
