bHere

realised in 2026

Project size: L — relative scope and implementation effort L

bHere helps you spend less time on your phone, both with friends and on your own. In a group session, it tracks how often each person uses their phone and turns that into a game. One mode splits a shared bill according to phone use. Other modes let the group set its own stakes. You can also start a solo focus session when you need to concentrate, for example while working on university assignments. The iOS and Android apps work without an internet connection. Group sessions connect devices over Bluetooth, so you can even play in an underground bar!
