Because your time is precious
Very few of us wish to spend five hours a day looking at a screen. Yet we do, because modern apps are engineered to capture and hold our attention. Reclaiming your time takes more than willpower alone.
Neara is created in close collaboration with co-owner Dr. Ole Petter Hjelle, a physician, neuroscientist, and bestselling author on brain health and focus. Together, we have built a calm, science-backed tool that helps you break the autopilot, so you can spend your time on what truly matters.
Life is happening right in front of you, right now
How it works
- 01
Protected Zones
Presence, Focus Time & Sleep
Set fixed times for concentration at work or study (Focus Time), presence in the afternoon (Presence) and calm at night (Sleep). Categories, apps and websites that steal your attention are shielded automatically, so you don't have to rely on willpower, while essential everyday tools such as phone, messages and system apps always work as normal.
- 02
Mindful Pause
Break the autopilot in everyday life
When you try to open a shielded app out of old habit, Neara meets you with a calm breathing pause. You are never forcibly locked out. You choose whether to put your phone away and stay in the zone, or take a short, intentional break of a few minutes if you have a real errand.
