social media fatigue and the case for digital detox

digital detoxsocial media fatiguemindful social

how many hours do you spend on instagram? how many times have you said "i'm done scrolling"? social media fatigue is real and growing.

iz is the opposite of social media. no likes, no followers, no algorithm. you just walk, find, leave. put your phone back in your pocket and keep walking.

why iz is different

because iz doesn't want to keep you glued to your screen. it wants to get you outside, walking, exploring the city. it's the digital detox itself.

the problem with traditional social media

infinite scroll. notification dopamine. comparison anxiety. follower counts as self-worth metrics. iz has none of these. traces fade in 30 days. there's no profile to obsess over. no metrics to chase.

iz is social media for people who are tired of social media.
