Breakpoints4U rewards you with real gift cards for NOT using your mobile phone.
A unique and fun concept where you earn Points by taking offline Breaks!

You have to be minimum 13 years of age in order to use Breakpoints4U.

Is it a challenge to detach yourself from the screen? Do you easily lose focus because you have your smartphone in the hand? Breakpoints4U motivates you to take offline breaks away from your smartphone. By taking cautious breaks you become aware of your digital behavior - an important first step when you wish to develop healthier mobile habits.

If used actively, Breakpoint4U can help you to gain more control over your social media consumption and your mobile phone usage. You will be more present when you are among friends and family. A reward in itself – we top it off with attractive gift cards!

Are you 20 years old or older, you must use the Premium version which runs as a monthly subscription.

LACKING PRESENCE IN THE FAMILY? HOW FAMILIES CAN USE BREAKPOINTS4U WITH ADVANTAGE

1: Make a family Team:

Then it’s easy to make family Breaks when you wish presence without phones. Compete and compare your performance with other family Teams. Or see who in the family can get the most points during the week.

2: Create dialogue about family members’ mobile consumption:

As a parent, invite for shared-Breaks. Its a friendly way to ask for presence. No perfect mobile behavior is requested from the parents! Dialogue can be created in which each others weaknesses are highlighted and, on that side, solutions can be found together.

3: An agreed score obtained = a positive reward is triggered:

Make a deal where the teenager receives an agreed reward when a certain weekly score has been achieved; for example, a domestic task usually done by the young person will instead be made by the father/mother, or extra pocket money.
