INTRODUCING
Zenbox — the physical pause button for your apps.
Zenbox is more than an app blocker: it's your analog off switch in a digital world.
The trick: to open your apps, you have to touch your Zenbox. Physically.
Put your Zenbox in another room (mine hangs on the fridge) and your distracting apps stay out of reach.
A simple, powerful solution for more focus, calm, and clarity.
How the Zenbox works
More focus and fewer distractions in just 4 simple steps
Choose the apps and websites that distract you. You can also allow certain apps and block others.
Tap your phone on the Zenbox or use the button in the app. A timer starts and tracks your focus time.
Place the Zenbox out of reach. As a physical device, it creates real friction – you have to physically touch it to unlock your apps.
Regain access to your apps by tapping your phone on the Zenbox again. You also have 5 emergency unlocks through the app.
The Zenbox app. Simply switch off.
Choose times, block apps, track your progress – right from the app.
Simply bring it close.
Hold your iPhone or Android phone to the Zenbox – and the connection is instant.
It works as intuitively as Apple Pay: one tap, and your focus begins.
For iPhone (iOS 16.2+) and Android – tested on numerous devices, including Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy S24.
Your timer is your anchor.
As long as it's running, distracting apps stay locked – only once it ends can you open them again without the Zenbox.
A mindfully chosen moment that protects you. Short, clear and entirely for you.
Only what you allow.
Choose exactly the apps or websites that distract you – Zenbox locks them reliably until you mindfully open them again.
And the best part: Zenbox works seamlessly with all browsers.
Zenbox sets the boundary.
Distracting apps stay closed – and only open once you mindfully unlock them at the Zenbox. A clear moment of decision.
Simple. Reliable. For your focus.
A mode for every moment.
Switch with a single tap from everyday life into deep focus, into calm or into movement – exactly as your day needs.
Each mode creates a space of its own: for a clear mind, for relaxation, for energy. So Zenbox doesn't adapt to you – but to your moment.
Analyze precisely.
Recognize patterns you've overlooked before: when you're most focused, when you drift off and where your day truly opens up space. A clear, calm overview that shows you how your screen time is changing – not guessing, but understanding.
Your streak. Your flow.
Watch how one day after another grows into a new routine – and stay playful along the way.
Every streak reminds you that change becomes easier when it brings joy.
Schlafmodus
Deine Nacht gehört dir.
Ab Schlafenszeit blockiert Zenbox ablenkende Apps – optional mit Wind-Down vorher und Wecker am Morgen. Aufstehen geht nur mit Scan deiner Zenbox. So bleibt das Handy nachts draußen, bis du wirklich wach bist.
Affirmations-Widget
Dein Reminder auf einen Blick.
Jeden Tag eine neue Affirmation – auf dem Sperrbildschirm oder Home Screen. Kein Feed, kein Lärm: nur ein kurzer Satz, der dich erinnert, warum du das Handy liegen lässt.
Standort
Dein Ort ist deine Grenze.
Betrittst du einen gespeicherten Ort – Büro, Uni, Café – blockiert Zenbox automatisch die Apps deiner Sperrliste. Verlässt du ihn, wird entsperrt. Kein manuelles Starten, kein Vergessen.

A day with Zenbox
Start clear-headed
Before you go online, come back to yourself first.
Don't let your day start with news, emails, or social media.
Start with silence, a coffee, or your to-do list.
Zenbox holds the digital world back —
and gives you a clear head for what really matters.
Study time & deep work
When it counts: be fully present.
Whether studying, working, or a creative project:
With Zenbox, your time is entirely yours. No interruptions, no distractions.
Just you and your flow. That's what productive work really feels like.
Stay active, stay undistracted
Your body wants to feel, not scroll.
Whether jogging, yoga, or cycling:
With Zenbox, your phone stays silent and your mind stays free. No constant reach for the screen, no social media check.
Just you, your breath, and the moment.
Feel what's really in motion — yourself.
Quality Time
When you're there, be really there.
Zenbox helps you put your phone aside — and let the world stand still for a moment.
Whether with your child, your partner, or just for yourself:
You only get truly close without a screen.
Connected time
Screens off, people on.
Whether eating, playing, or just sitting together:
Zenbox makes sure conversations aren't interrupted by notifications.
Closeness happens when we give each other our full attention.
Wind down in the evening
The day was loud. Now it's time for quiet.
Zenbox helps you let go of your smartphone — and notice yourself again.
A book instead of a screen. Thoughts instead of noise.
And that moment when you realize:
I've truly arrived.
Your evening. Your silence.
Digital Detox.

MY MISSION
Why I built Zenbox
Hi, I'm Konstantin.
For years I was glued to my phone. At some point it bothered me how much was falling by the wayside – time with my family, real conversations, the feeling of being fully present with something.
Deleting apps never worked for me. After two days they were back. I needed something I couldn't bypass with a swipe – something physical.
So I built Zenbox. A small device you tap briefly to unlock your apps. When it lives in another room, your phone simply stays quiet. No subscription, no account, no fuss.
Today I'm in charge of my day again – not my phone. I wish the same for you.
