Powermate is a gamified mobile app that helps you control screen time with the support of friends. You set time limits for distracting apps and join accountability groups—when time's up, access is blocked. Need more time, ask your group.

Hey Product Hunt community,
Salar here from Powermate - the screen time management app that actually works.
I’ve tried everything; setting app limits, grayscale mode, even deleting social media for a while - but nothing seemed to stick.
That’s why I built Powermate, a fresh approach to managing screen time with the power of community. Think of it as having a gym buddy, but for your digital wellness. You set limits on distracting apps, and when you hit those limits, app is blocked. Need extra time? Ask your friends.
Our early users have reported saving 2-3 hours per day, experiencing better focus, increased productivity, and even stronger relationships as they spend more quality time offline. Powermate isn’t just about reducing screen time - it’s about using your phone with intention.
I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or your own struggles with screen time management.
I loved it because I can use it with my friends...and this accountability actually stops me from using the specific apps that l am addicted to. That is why this app actually helped me to reduce my screen time.
Great forcing function to spend less time on social media. I specifically like the group accountability and the fact that my own friends decide whether or not I can continue using the apps. Love it!

Congrats on the launch Salar! Have been using this for weeks now, it has surely helped bring down my screen time. Thank you! :)
@mahima_manik Thank you very much Mahima for the feedback, glad you're finding it helpful. Means a lot.
i have used this app and this is the only one which works bcz your friends keep you accountable!
@ashley_parekh Friends pressure is real.
I think that having people keep me accountable is a better option than all the other screen blockers out there!
@chris_cardoza1 Exactly. Relying on will power doesn't really work here.
Congrats on the launch, Salar! 👏
Just downloaded it and blocked some apps on my phone and it was pretty seamless. Excited to start using it!
Well done!
@fey_ Thank you Fey
