Working together towards a phone that provides better balance
Join us in a conversation – be part of creating new solutions.
We are working to create a new phone and a possible range of other solutions to tackle the impact of smartphone use on the wellbeing of children and young people around the world.
Our goal is to create a suite of new and innovative solutions that help people have the choice they need to find balance with their phones.
Now we are collaborating with a global community to create credible alternatives for smartphones that meet peoples’ needs – giving real choice and control back to parents, their children or younger people to feel better.
The time is now
We live in a connected world where smartphone use is part of the everyday. Our goal is to find solutions which help people achieve the balanced relationship with tech they want for themselves and their loved ones.
The Better Phone Project is happening right now, with the outcomes due to launch in less than a year. We recognise the urgency to be able to give people the ability to make informed decisions as they navigate the complexities of the tech landscape and how it fits into their lives.
How it works
We are collaborating with parents, younger people, experts and relevant institutions to hold a series of virtual forums to co-create innovative new solutions that give you the choice you want to meet your digital wellbeing needs.
