Unwire
Unwire is a self-improvement and education app available on iOS and Android. It uses AI to map users' patterns across screen time, phone addiction, scrolling habits, sleep, stress, focus, and energy. After a free two-minute assessment, the app provides a personalized set of learning modules grounded in psychology, neuroscience, and peer-reviewed research. Over 75 evidence-based lessons explain the science behind habit formation and digital behaviors. The app includes validated self-checks based on established instruments like the IAT and SAS for awareness, not diagnosis. It also features guided mindfulness sessions, breathing exercises, and a structured three-phase habit-building system with streak tracking and visual progress analytics. A key emphasis is on privacy: data is encrypted, never sold, and users can delete their accounts anytime. The app is available in more than 30 languages.
