It is really the tool we need to fight back. Do you have a plan for a desktop version? Congrats on the launch team, good luck! 🚀
Ondrej Zak
@milkers Thank you for your support, Mustafa! For now, we are 100% focusing on mobile. In the future, we want to become the platform where people challenge each other to become better versions of themselves and are planning to go not only to desktop / browser, but also to the voice assistants such as Alexa.

Hey, congrats on the launch. 🚀👏🏻 “Once I understood the psychological part behind my addiction, I started to deep-dive into the topic and read many books and papers.” I read the book by Nir Eyal as well, but I’d be curious to know more about how you applied your learning to the product. What exactly is the psychology behind Zario?
killian Fjellbakk
@danielkunz2 Hey Daniel :) Actually, we've taking a lot of inspiration from @nireyal and actually told him as well about how his books really inspired us. The underlying psychology we use is based on (CBT) Cognitive Behavioural Science, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Our advisor Severin Haug, is also a leading expert in using digital tools to prevent and reduce addictions. So we're working with him, and our team of psychologists to take actionable steps that are fun and insightful at the same time. We're also planning to do a randomised trial soon with him at the University of Zurich and possibly IE university in Spain

👍You guys are amazing! After doing user testing for Zario. I asked them if I could help them with creating content for Social Media and they were super welcoming. They even invited me to their headquarters in Zurich. Both founders are very inspiring for me as a student. This is one of the biggest opportunities for me. 😊Thank you guys, you have an amazing product that I use daily! Keep the good work up!
Ondrej Zak
@jamiekroll Thank you very much, Jamie! When you offered us help with social media after testing Zario, it really gave us a motivation boost!

@jamiekroll I love that Zario was open to your collaboration. I think that's the future of building products-- believers become collaborators and share in the upside.

Congratulations for the launch, Ondrej. Zario seems a very relevant product for the distracted times we live in. I guess, there are tons of gamification opportunities in the product like shared challenge with community for less time spent on phone. All the very best.

@jareer_samad Thank you, Jareer!
