1440 hours— That's how much time we spend on our phone in a year. Let me say it again. 1440 hours. If we're talking about work, that's equivalent to 180 days. In terms of active hours, it's 25%. You could even watch "Game of Thrones" 23 times over. What if you could use these 1440 hours more meaningfully?

I have noticed a big difference in my sleep since reducing my phone use before bed. I feel more rested and ready for the day.
Masaki Nakata
@andreas_sohns Oh! That’s great to hear!! When the quality of sleep improves, the productivity of waking hours becomes amazing. I will also do my best to increase the number of people like Andreas Sohns 💪

Congrats on the launch! What are the main differences between this product and the default Screen Time functionality in iOS?
Masaki Nakata
@semanser Thank you for the excellent question! iOS Screen Time makes it too easy to extend usage by 15 minutes, which was ineffective for me. For example, with DREAM SHEEP, you can only use an app for 10 minutes. If you want to use it again, you need to take a 10-second deep breath. This slightly annoying process helps prevent excessive usage! And it’s cute too 🐑 Additionally, we have a SUPER Block mode that ensures you cannot open the app during the set time. This might be a bit too strict, but it’s an option! 😂

@masaki_nakata You had me at 1,720,000 push-ups. Yes, that's exactly what I am doing that with all the extra time I save! 💪 ムキムキにならなきゃ! 😅

@naomigarcia Thank you! Let’s get ripped together! It might also be good to get those abs in shape 💪

Thank you all for your comments! We finally released it, so please download it from the App Store! https://apps.apple.com/app/id647... I believe it works because my own screen time has significantly decreased. If you find any inconveniences, please let me know anytime. Also, I’m not very familiar with Product Hunt rules. What should I do next?

Reducing screen time is such a crucial goal these days. I'm curious, how customizable are the app blocking features? Can users set different rules for weekdays and weekends, or does it operate uniformly? Congrats on the launch, Masaki!

@kyrylosilin from what I’ve been using so far, I’m able to pick auto-curated groups or hand pick apps individually (or both!). They can even be set to routines so I’d say this app is pretty versatile!

Maybe adding a feature to track progress over time could be motivating for users. Seeing how much screen time they've saved could be a nice reward!
Masaki Nakata
@carmen_judson Knowing how much time you’ve saved is important!! That’s a great idea! Please give it a try and share your feedback! https://apps.apple.com/app/id647...

Dream Sheep seems like a fantastic tool for reclaiming our time from endless scrolling. 1440 hours a year is a lot of time—equivalent to 180 workdays or watching "Game of Thrones" 23 times over! 😮 I'm curious how Dream Sheep stacks up against other screen time apps like Forest and Moment. What unique features does it offer to make reducing phone usage fun and engaging?
Jayesh Gohel
Hey @masaki_nakata Can Dream Sheep be your key to restful nights & chasing dreams? This app helps you reclaim time by blocking distracting apps, potentially freeing up 1,440 hours a year! Live your dreams, not your screen time.
Masaki Nakata

It allows us to set healthy screen time limits for our kids without constant nagging. It encourages better habits early on and fosters a balanced approach to technology use.
Masaki Nakata
@sophia_gartner You’re right, we haven’t fully explored how effective it is for children. Please share your thoughts with us! https://apps.apple.com/app/id647... https://x.com/MasakiNakata_en
