Aro's mission is to have a little less phone time, so you can experience life, uninterrupted.  It is the first of its kind smart box that individuals and families can place their phones in while not using them. As soon as the devices are in, the time spent inside is tracked and logged through Aro's companion app. Not only does Aro track your time away from your phone, but it also charges your phone while you recharge. The Aro smart box acts as the visual cue to put down your phone, while the Aro app acts as your coach by helping you set goals and encouraging you to reach them along the way.SHOW NOTES: 📱 Aro: Beyond just a box, how can it improve your phone and bedtime habits?📱 Heath thought most things we own have a place, like cars, silverware, and clothes, but not phones.📱The power of groups in improving phone habits📱What is the impact of phones from a productivity perspective?📱Beta testers' experiences with ARO📱Aro App gamify 📱As Joey says, if you begin with one small step, you're not far from what you ultimately want.📱Joey noted the implications of Malcolm Gladwell's book The Tipping Point, especially in an age of technology. 📱Joey and Heath's biggest sleep game changerSPONSOR:Huge shoutout to our sponsor: Biooptimizers!They are my nightly source of magnesium supplementation go to  www.magbreakthrough.com/sleepisaskill for the kind I use every night!Website: https://www.goaro.com/Instagram: @goaronowTwitter: @go_aroFacebook: @goaronowLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/goaro/DISCLAIMER: The information contained on this podcast, our website, newsletter, and the resources available for download are not intended as, and shall not be understood or construed as, medical or health advice.
