Hands full. Phone away.

Moments it is made for In development

• The school run“What time is pick-up today?” The answer from your calendar, at your ear, without unlocking anything.
• The reminder“Remind me to pack the swim bag at seven.” A buzz at seven, wherever you are.
• The quick answer“How long do eggs boil?” Heard while your hands stay busy.
• The weekend“What’s on this weekend?” Read to you from your calendar.
• The mail that mattersA buzz when the school or the childminder writes; the rest waits.

Less phone in front of the children

Children copy what they see. A ring that buzzes and stays dark keeps the screen out of the evening, while the few things that matter still reach you. For more ideas, read how to use your phone less.

What it is not

Lychnos Ring is not a baby monitor or an emergency device, and it cannot call emergency numbers. It does not watch, track or locate anyone. Keep your phone within reach for what really cannot wait.

Later, at home

Alkyon, our flying companion for the home, is a concept for later. It is designed to keep a metre from people, and two presses on the ring stop it.
