The accessory works by being attached onto the rear of the smartphone where it will act as a grip for holding onto the device when in use. The device can be set to specific [time limits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/speedbump), which will close the grip and indicate that time is up. The conceptual 'Burnner' is the design work of Unae Ko and Janchi, and works with a charging base to power up the device itself and the user's smartphone thanks to a [wireless charging pad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/humidifier-and-wireless-charger). The system could help to greatly reduce smartphone use and combat against the onset of addiction by putting limits on exposure. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 60% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 13% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Smartphone Addiction Reduction:** Opportunity to develop more innovative technology products designed to help users curb their smartphone addiction. - **Wireless Charging Accessories:** Opportunity to develop new wireless charging products that work with accessories to limit smartphone use. - **Time-limited Device Accessories:** Opportunity to create more accessories that offer time-limited access to devices to promote better technology use habits. ### Where This Applies - **Technology:** Manufacturers could create accessories with time-limited usage features to complement their devices. - **Healthcare:** Public health professionals could recommend the use of smartphone accessories like 'Burnner' to reduce smartphone addiction. - **Consumer Goods:** Companies could develop smartphone accessories to help consumers gain more control over their smartphone usage patterns. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Smartphone Detox Lockboxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartphone-lock-box.md) - [Usage-Curbing Smartphone Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartphone-lock.md) - [Colorful Smartphone Charging Docks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/griptok.md) - [Healthy Habit Smartphone Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartphone-enclosure-concept.md) - [Acrylic Smartphone Addiction Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/methaphone.md) - [Magsafe Clock Smartphone Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olock.md) - [Smartphone Addiction Meditation Lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-detox-device.md) - [Conscious Smartphone Detox Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muto.md) - [Playful Digital Detox Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheaum-concept.md)
