Our mission
Get people back to real life.
Everyone is building AI assistants to answer your emails and do your work. We’re building one for something more important: your attention.
Zippy starts with the apps that you’re addicted to, so you spend less time scrolling and more time with the people and things right in front of you. This is just the beginning, stay tuned.
FAQ
How is Zippy different from Screen Time?
Zippy uses Apple’s Screen Time to enforce your blocks, but you set and change them by texting Zippy, so they actually fit your day instead of getting switched off.
What do I need to use Zippy?
You’ll need an iPhone. Zippy is in private beta through TestFlight; join the waitlist for beta access.
Does a text change my blocks immediately?
Changes only take effect when you open the Zippy app on your iPhone and tap Apply.
Do I have to use texting?
You can set your blocking routines in the iPhone app too. Texting is another way to ask Zippy for a routine or a short break.
