Picking...Pulling...Biting...Whatever the Habit, Hands Off

In a world where our hands are constantly active—typing, swiping, clicking—it's no wonder that many of us fall prey to habits we'd rather break free from. Nail biting, skin picking, eyelash pulling; these are more than just bad habits. They are Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) that can cause significant distress and even physical harm. But what if there was a way to gently remind yourself to keep your hands off? Enter Hands Off, a groundbreaking desktop app designed to help you quit these habits for good.

What Makes Hands Off Different?

Unlike traditional methods that rely on after-the-fact interventions or bitter-tasting nail polish, Hands Off uses state-of-the-art AI technology to detect when your hands are near your face, providing real-time interventions to stop BFRBs in their tracks. This isn't just a band-aid solution; it's a smart, privacy-first approach to habit change.

How Hands Off Works

Hands Off operates quietly in the background of your computer. When it detects your hands nearing your face—a common precursor to many BFRBs—it pops up a gentle reminder to keep your hands away. This immediate feedback loop is crucial in retraining your brain to become conscious of these habits and ultimately, to break them.
