Detox

🌱 Exciting News: Filos is becoming Detox! We’re thrilled to announce that Filos is entering its next chapter as Detox – a name that perfectly captures our vision of personal growth and digital wellbeing. Why Detox? Because breaking free from social media's grip should feel as refreshing as a digital cleanse. 🔄 As part of this evolution, we're making Detox fully premium. This strategic decision allows us to focus entirely on delivering an exceptional experience to our dedicated users who share our vision of intentional digital living. 👋 With this transition, we're also saying farewell to two valuable team members who are pursuing new adventures. Their contributions have been instrumental in shaping our journey, and we're genuinely grateful for their impact. We wish you the very best in your next chapters, Jonathan Hsu and Mehdi Bouassami. 🎯 Our mission remains stronger than ever: to build a world where people consciously engage with technology rather than being pulled into endless scrolling sessions. We envision a future where everyone: • Makes intentional choices about their digital engagement • Understands how they spend their time • Uses technology as a tool for growth rather than a source of distraction This is just the beginning. Detox represents not just a new name, but a reinforced commitment to our vision of mindful digital living. Thank you to everyone who has been part of our journey so far. We're excited to continue growing together! 🌸 #DigitalWellbeing #PersonalGrowth #StartupLife #ProductAnnouncement #Mindfulness

Exciting News from Our Team at Filos! Embarking on the journey to build a consumer app for digital well-being has truly been a rollercoaster experience. As four founders in New York, we've faced our fair share of highs and lows. There were moments of doubt, times when it felt like no one else would believe in our vision. But we pushed through, fueled by our passion and the small victories that kept us going. We are convinced of our app’s potential to revolutionize how people interact with their smartphones, shifting from passive usage to mindful, intentional engagement. Today, we’re thrilled to announce a significant upturn in our journey—we've hit 3,000 daily active users and have crossed $1,000 in revenue! These numbers aren't just metrics; they are a testament to the growing need for digital balance. As we look to the future, our commitment is stronger than ever. We're not just scaling an app; we're scaling our impact, dedicated to improving digital health and fostering healthier human-smartphone relationships. Thank you to everyone who has joined us on this ride, supporting us through the ups and downs. We are excited for what lies ahead and hope you continue to be a part of our story. Let's build a healthier digital future together! #DigitalWellbeing #StartupLife #GrowthJourney #NYCStartups

🏆 Filos won 2 prizes at the Blaze EPFL Startup Ceremony! Filos is an iOS app designed to help you spend less time on your phone. 🎤 Last week, Leo and I pitched Filos on the occasion of the end of the 6th Blaze cohort. Our mission to free people from digital distractions resonated well with both the public and the judges. We're thrilled to announce the awards we received: 🏅 IMEIK Innovation Award (2’000 CHF), represented by Didier Cowling. 🥈 Runner-up of the Public Vote Award (500 CHF). A huge thank you to Maurice Gaillard for leading the Blaze Startup Incubator and fostering an environment where we could flourish. Our gratitude extends to Didier Cowling and the public for their trust in us. We will use this prize money and the accompanying social recognition with great care. Thanks also to the coaches who made the Blaze program not just possible, but incredibly valuable. And once again, none of this would have been possible without the unwavering commitment of the entire Filos team: Jonathan Hsu, Mehdi Bouassami, and Leo Litrico. 2023 has been an extraordinary year. I'm taking a moment to let it all sink in before reflecting more deeply. In the meantime, if you feel like you're spending an unreasonable amount of time on your phone, we got you ;) 📲 Download Filos here: https://lnkd.in/eQv4RzKq
