Nela

Less scrolling. More living.

A little friend for life beyond your screen. Choose the apps that pull you in, put your phone down, and do something real. Your pet goes on an adventure too, and comes home with something to show for it.

Coming soon to iPhone.

How time away works

  1. Choose the apps that pull you in

    Apple’s Screen Time keeps them closed while you’re away. You pick them, and you can change them any time.

  2. Do something real

    A walk, a page, a tidy desk. Your pet starts the same thing and heads off down the path.

  3. Come home together

    Bond, coins and the odd discovery grow your pet’s world. Ending early is fine; nothing you earned is ever lost.

Quests put it on your calendar

A few short adventures across the day, each with a gentle reminder. Skip one and nothing is lost.

  • Outside

    Lunch Outside

    Lunch outside for fifteen minutes, then a walk to the end of the street and back.

    Creative Hour

    Ten ideas on paper in the morning, coloring in the evening, doodles before bed.

  • Move

    Move More

    Two songs to dance to, a walk at lunch, a stretch in the evening.

    Calm Mind

    Ten slow breaths when you wake, a look at the sky, ten quiet minutes at night.

You choose which apps to protect. Nela doesn’t read your messages or social content, your Screen Time data stays on your iPhone, and there are no ads or trackers.
