Meet the card that makes space for you
The Off Switch is a simple way to create healthy phone boundaries.
You set what goes quiet in the Off Switch app. Then you tap your iPhone on your Off Switch card to enter Off Mode. Your essentials stay available; the time‑sinks stay paused. Tap again to turn things back on.
No diets for your phone. No shame.
Just a tiny ritual that helps you choose what to pay attention to.
Mindfully crafted for us all
How the tap does its trick
Choose your quiet.
In the app, pick the apps and notifications you want to pause during Off Mode.
Tap to switch Off.
Touch your phone to your Off Switch card. That’s your “I’m off now” moment.
Tap to switch On.
Ready to rejoin the world? Tap again. And just like that, you and your phone are back.
Less admin, more control.
1. No account needed. Core features don’t require sign-up, so you can start in minutes, not after an email loop.
2. Works in messy real life. Once it’s set up, the tap-to-Off experience can work offline, so it still holds up on commutes, in gyms, and in low-signal spots.
3. Your choices stay on your phone. Your allow list and quiet list live on-device; you can edit or reset them any time, and you’re not relying on tracking to make it work.
Clear routines, fewer slip-ups.
1. One tap, one clear change. Tap your iPhone on your Off Switch card to enter Off Mode, then tap again when you’re ready to come back on.
2. Essentials stay available. Keep what you need, like calls, maps, music, or your calendar, and let the noisy stuff go quiet.
3. The cue lives where the habit happens. Keep the card by your bed, on your desk, or near the kettle, so switching off is a visible, repeatable routine, not a memory test.
More calm, less brain noise.
1. Fewer interruptions, less tension. When the pings stop, your attention gets room to settle, and you can actually stay with what you’re doing.
2. Less decision fatigue. A physical tap turns “Do I stop now?” into one simple action, so you’re not re-deciding inside the screen all day.
3. Boundaries that feel kind, not strict. You stay in charge, you can tap back on any time, and it’s built to feel supportive on tired days, not like a punishment.

Stories from the happy side
“I’m honestly loving the app, especially when I’m out. I took my grandson bowling yesterday and was glad I’d tapped my token before we left home! I automatically tried to check Facebook and Instagram when we paused for a drink, and of course, I couldn’t!”
Anna N.
“Great app and token combo. Very quick to set up and super easy to use. Really enjoying my tech-free time, and I’d recommend it to anyone whose life revolves around their mobile.”
Tom W.
“Keeping the card in a different room means that each evening, once I’ve tapped my phone on the token and my chosen apps are effectively ‘blocked’, I spend far less time on my phone and finally have time to do something creative again. The temptation to ‘just check my phone quickly’ is gone. Then, in the morning, I have to physically go to the card and tap to unlock my apps again.”
Andy S.
FAQs
Do I need an account or a subscription?
No. You don’t need an account, and the core app features are free to use with no subscription needed.
Can I start small and change it later?
Of course. Start with a short, quiet list, try an Off moment in your day, and adjust as you go.
Can I use more than one card?
Yes. Many people keep one by their bed, one on their desk at work, and one in their bag for the gym. You can set them up once and use them interchangeably.

The Off Switch is compatible with iPhones running iOS 17 and later. You’ll see the latest compatibility details inside the app during setup.
