Momentum
Almost two hours. Not decided. It just happened.
Social media was built like a slot machine. Not figuratively. Literally. The same mechanics that keep people at slot machines for hours are built into every feed.
“We are exploiting a vulnerability in human psychology.”
“You do not realize it, but you are being programmed.”
The inventor of infinite scroll now warns against it himself.
The average is around 4 hours a day, measured. Sounds manageable. Until you do the math.
Self-estimated. Measured is usually more: around 20 extra minutes a day.
The same time is enough for 292 books. Or 1,947 workouts. Every year.
A key in the room beats a rule in the phone
The Key lives where your life happens. On the desk, by the door, on the fridge. One tap locks the loud apps, one tap opens them again. Your phone stays a tool. You stay in charge.
How ctrl worksDinner without phones, for the first time in years. Our evening mode starts on its own.
Sleep mode at half past ten, on its own. I read again at night instead of scrolling.
Focus on, phone shut, done. I finish work in the afternoon, not at night.
From our test program, before the first delivery. Real people, own words.
Your pre-order is free to cancel until we ship. One email is enough.
If it changes nothing, send it back. Full refund, no questions.
No battery, nothing to charge, sealed aluminum. 2 years of warranty coverage under EU law.
Everything lives on your device. EU privacy. No tracking.
Behind ctrl are Manu, Lara, Diyana and Szymon. Four founders from Germany.
