Features

Everything Benji does,
one piece at a time.

Six features that hold the line between you and the doomscroll. Friendly. Firm. On from lights-out to sunrise.

01 / Alarms

The bedtime alarm.

Tell Benji when you want to be asleep. He rings a wind-down alarm 20–40 minutes ahead — that’s when your routine starts and the distracting apps lock down. Then a wake-up alarm in the morning. Both mean what they say.

  • Wind-down alarm starts the routine and the blocker
  • Wake-up alarm in the morning
  • Custom schedule for weeknights vs weekends
  • Snooze allowed — but only so much

02 / Blocker

The app blocker.

Open a blocked app after bedtime and Benji steps in: "Sorry, friend — not tonight." Need a few minutes anyway? Spend sparks — the currency you earn from finishing routine steps. Otherwise it stays closed.

  • Block any app on your phone
  • 5- or 15-minute unlock costs sparks
  • Local-only — your usage never leaves your device
  • Unblocks at your wake-up alarm
03 / Routine

The routine.

Stack the steps that actually wind you down — a hot shower, skincare, light stretching, herbal tea, paper-book reading, journaling, breathing exercises. Set how long each one takes, and Benji adds it up so you know exactly when to start the routine.

  • Select your steps
  • Set your own duration per task
  • Finish a task, earn sparks
  • Add your own custom rituals

Sparks ✨

Currency you earn for finishing routine steps. Spend them for a few minutes of a blocked app — or save them up and watch your streak grow.

v.

Streaks 🔥

A nightly counter for routines finished on time. Miss a night? Benji resets without comment. Sleep is a practice, not a court date.

vi.

Journal

A quiet morning page for a thought just after waking. Track how you feel and what you dreamt right when you wake. Stays on your device. Nobody reads it but you.

Time to put the phone to bed.
