Distraction-Deterring Smartphone Boxes

The 'DistractaGone' Smartphone Box Holder Helps Users Focus

— September 14, 2016 — Tech
Trying to get work done when your smartphone is nearby distracting you can be difficult, so the 'DistractaGone' smartphone box holder is here to provide device isolation.

The 'DistractaGone' box works by enabling up to four devices to be placed within the compartment and set with a timer. The box is unable to be opened (unless brute force is used) until the timer has gone off. This allows professionals and teams to focus without having to be distracted by their smartphone constantly buzzing and beeping at them.

The 'DistractaGone' smartphone box holder is currently available for funding on Kickstarter and also holds great promise for families as well. The 'DistractaGone' could be used as a place to put phones during meals to keep distractions at a minimum.
