A quiet hour at the table.
Keep one Mohar on the shelf near where you eat. Everyone taps on the way in and the feeds go quiet for an hour. No shouting, no confiscating, no argument about screen time.
Paid once. No monthly fee and nothing to charge.
Choose how many
You are not angry about screens. You just want twenty minutes where somebody looks up.
“Put the phone away” gets a nod and no change. You have said it so many times it has become background noise.
Confiscating turns the problem into a fight about you instead of a fight about the phone.
This is the uncomfortable one, and it is the one that decides whether any of this works. A rule that only you are allowed to break stops being a rule inside a week, and children notice long before they say anything.
They also break the trust you are trying to build. And a teenager finds a way around them in an afternoon.
Nobody decided to stop talking at dinner. It just quietly happened over a couple of years.
The things a child mentions sideways, halfway through a meal, when there is nothing else in the room to look at. Those things never get said in a scheduled conversation. They only arrive in the gaps.
Almost every parent says the same thing. It only worked once they went first.
I keep it in the kitchen and my phone stays in the bedroom from 8pm. She said something about it before I ever explained what it was.
My son was copying me all along. Nothing changed until I started tapping it before dinner and saying nothing about it.
It used to be twelve. Nobody decided to stop talking at the table, it just happened. This quietly undid it.
The things a child mentions sideways, halfway through a meal, when there is nothing else in the room to look at. Those never get said in a scheduled conversation.
One small object on the shelf. Everyone taps on the way to the table, including you. It stops being a punishment the moment it applies to the whole house.
This works far better than any rule we have seen.
Calls and messages never stop for anyone. If school or work needs to reach you, the phone rings.
One stone on the shelf, and everyone taps on the way to the table, including you. The moment it applies to the whole house it stops being a punishment.
No, and that is deliberate. Each person sets their own list on their own phone. It is a shared habit, not a leash. Every parental control app we tested broke the trust it was meant to protect, and a teenager works around them in an afternoon.
Some will, at first. It works far better when you tap yours first and say nothing at all about it for a fortnight. Copying beats instructing at that age, and every parent who has written to us has said the same thing.
Calls and SMS are never blocked, for anyone, ever. Only the apps each person picked go quiet. The school can always reach you and you can always reach your child.
No. There is no battery inside and no way for it to reach the internet. It cannot see anything, record anything or send anything about anyone. There is no dashboard and no report, because there is nothing to report.
Yes, and this is how most families use it. Each phone remembers its own list, so your husband can block work mail while your daughter blocks games. One stone on the shelf is enough for a whole household.
There is nothing to learn. Setup takes four minutes on the day it arrives, and after that it is tap and go. If anybody at home gets stuck, message us on WhatsApp and one of us will walk them through it.
Forty minutes where everyone is in the same room, actually.
