You picked up your phone for a reason. Sometimes, that reason gets lost along the way.
A message, a like, an update. Your attention shifts before you’ve decided to pick up the phone.
You answer the message. Then there’s another post, another video, another reason to stay.
Stillminute shows the pattern. Set a reminder, quiet selected notifications, or simply put the phone down.
An everyday scenario, not a measured customer result. Stillminute records detected opens; it cannot prove why you picked up your phone.
