So you say you want to get offline? Well now you can prove it!
Since Spring is just around the corner, ushering in new growth, and brighter days is at an all time high!
For those of us with sizable screen time, spring’s arrival also means that the dreary weather is no longer an excuse for spending hours doomscrolling TikTok and Instagram Reels until our eyes simply can’t deal anymore. And now there’s an app that can help you feel like it’s spring year-round!
That is until an app called Touch Grass was created. The app’s premise comes from a jab that gained popularity during the early pandemic, typically used to inform chronically online users that they’d become disconnected from real life who were told to “touch grass.”
How the app works, is by allowing users to select their most distracting apps, then blocking said apps by default until the user ventures outside to physically ‘touch grass. Once they take a photo of grass and submit it to the app, they can then choose the amount of time they’d like their problem apps to be unblocked.
