The Light Phone
This phone was created by two former Google app developers who realized they could do better in the world. It’s a premium, minimal phone. It will never have social media, clickbait news, email, an internet browser, or any other anxiety-inducing infinite feed. They’ve just introduced a new Light Phone III that starts shipping in April 2025.
The Wisephone 2
Break free from app addiction with this phone that flat-out skips all social media, apps, and digital compulsions. It keeps your phone free from prying eyes, intrusive ads, data risks, and porn - they will never allow exposure to explicit images. Remove digital distractions from your kids’ lives so they can connect more authentically, relate more intentionally, and live life more fully. The Wisephone 2 also allows for helpful apps like Venmo, Uber and WhatsApp, among others.
