Opal helps you block out apps, notifications, so you can truly focus or simply disconnect. Super important, because remote work means work is always just a glance away. Opal helps increase that distance.

I’m really passionate about the impact Opal has on the brain. I really feel like people, especially athletes, don’t understand what the word “recovery” means. It’s not about giving your muscles a break. It’s about giving your mind a break too from all the sensory input we deal with on a daily basis.

Several people suggested Opal – I tried it out and it does exactly what I need it to do and is much more customizable than Down/Screen Time 💎 👍

I have been using Opal and it has really made me intentional about how and when I use my phone. I'll set a 23 hour timer and literally keep my phone in one room in the house so i don't default to looking at it as a habit (something I did a lot in my first 2 weeks off).
