Our Belief

Your phone was designed to consume you.
We designed one to serve you.

The UTE isn't a restricted phone. It's a liberated one. Every app is chosen by you, at setup, to serve your actual life. Then the door closes — permanently. No app store. No updates that sneak in feeds. No second-guessing yourself at 2am. Just a phone that does exactly what you need it to do, and nothing else.

01
Who It's For

Everyone who's
had enough.

Minimalists
🧘
INTENTIONAL LIVING

You've already simplified your home, wardrobe, and schedule. The phone is the last frontier. The UTE closes that loop.

Escapees
🔥
SOCIAL MEDIA RECOVERY

You've deleted the apps before. You've reinstalled them too. Willpower isn't the problem — the problem is that the door always existed.

Professionals
💼
DEEP WORK

Your best work requires uninterrupted thought. Every notification costs you more than the moment. The UTE removes the cost entirely.

Parents
👨‍👩‍👧
SAFETY WITHOUT FEEDS

You want your kids to have a phone for safety, not a feed to get lost in. The UTE gives them what they need — and that can't be argued around.

The Process

Three steps.
Then it's done.

01
🛒

Order the UTE

You receive a UTE — clean, unbranded, minimal hardware. A premium phone built to last. No pre-installed noise, no carrier bloat.

02
⚙️

Configure Your Life

In your onboarding session, you choose every app that earns its place. Phone. Maps. Banking. Music. Whatever you genuinely need. Nothing is rushed — this is a considered decision.

03
🔒

Lock It. Live It.

We hard-code your configuration. Permanently. Not a setting you can toggle off on a weak Thursday. The lock is the product. That's the point. That's the freedom.

The Difference

Not less.
Just right.

Every Other Phone
Algorithm-driven feeds engineered for addiction
Infinite app store — any distraction, one tap away
Notification avalanche pulling you out of the moment
"Screen time" limits you can override any time
Designed to maximise your time on the device
The UTE
Only the apps you chose, the day you set up
No app store. No additions. No exceptions.
Notifications from people, not platforms
Hard-coded — the lock cannot be picked, even by you
Designed to get you off the phone and into your life

The average person unlocks their phone 96 times a day.

"I didn't want to keep fighting myself. I wanted a phone that just… didn't give me anything to fight against. The UTE is that."

— Marcus T., Surgeon

"My kids are present now. We got them UTEs for their 13th birthdays. That was two years ago. I have no regrets."

— Sarah K., Parent of three

"I've tried every app-blocker. Every digital detox. None of it stuck. Permanence is the only thing that works. UTILITY understood that."

— Daniel W., Writer
