Touch Grass App Drops March ‘25: Screen Time’s Cooked, Brains Are Back

First off, this ain’t just a gimmick—it’s got real brains behind it. The app’s using Google’s Cloud Vision API to flex its grass-detecting skills, scanning your pics like a hawk to make sure you’re not faking it with some sad houseplant or a green rug. Rumor has it, Rhys Kentish might even level up to a custom AI model down the line, so it’s only gonna get smarter at sniffing out your outdoor vibes. That’s next-gen accountability, fam—no cheating the system!For the eco-warriors out there, it’s got a green heart. That 50% of premium skip profits goin’ to UK wildlife and rewilding? It’s not just talk—think restoring habitats, planting trees, and saving critters while you’re saving yourself from scrollin’ into oblivion. It’s a double W: less screen time for you, more nature for the planet. Plus, the app’s got a retro 8-bit pixelated vibe—like if Mario had to ditch the pipes and go hug a lawn—so it’s got that quirky charm to keep things fun.Listeners should also know it’s iOS-only for now, droppin’ March 14, 2025, so Android peeps gotta sit tight. You’ll need an iPhone with iOS 17 or later, and yeah, you gotta have actual grass nearby—no excuses, city dwellers might need to hunt for a park! The free version’s chill with one skip a month, but premium’s where the party’s at: unlimited app blocks, screen time stats to flex your progress, and extra skips if you’re feelin’ lazy. It’s perfect for anyone who’s ever lost a whole morning to TikTok and thought, “Bruh, I need help.”Oh, and the hype’s real—it blew up on X and Hacker News after Rhys dropped the teaser, so your listeners are gettin’ in on somethin’ that’s already got the internet buzzin’. It’s not just an app; it’s a vibe shift—kickin’ phone addiction to the curb, one grass pic at a time. Tell ‘em to pre-order it on the App Store and get ready to touch grass like it’s a side quest in the game of life!
