FAQ

Marzy is a digital companion that helps you build a healthier relationship with your screen time. Throughout your day, a friendly character gently interrupts with moments of intentionality—guiding you through activities like listening to music, taking quizzes, or reflecting on what matters. It's not about restriction, it's about awareness.

We're building Marzy for families who want to guide their children's digital lives without surveillance, and for individuals seeking a healthier relationship with their screens. Whether you're a parent or someone looking for balance in your own life, Marzy helps you understand where your time goes and develop your potential through curiosity rather than consumption.

No. Marzy is built on Apple's Screen Time API, which operates in a privacy sandbox. This means we fundamentally cannot record, track, or store your usage data—it's architecturally impossible. Even for families, guardians can manage devices remotely but never see their children's individual app usage or browsing history. Your digital life remains yours.

Marzy's character uses AI for conversations, but every animation, interaction, and line of code is created by humans. Our team includes animators from Marvel, DreamWorks, and other world-class studios who bring Marzy to life with personality and warmth. The app is built entirely from scratch in Swift, and Marzy's 3D presence is powered by Apple's RealityKit.

We don't store your screen time data—that stays on your device, handled by Apple's APIs. Any data we do handle is securely stored with encryption and industry-standard security practices. Privacy isn't a feature for us, it's the foundation.

Marzy isn't here to punish screen time—it's here to transform it. We turn passive scrolling into active engagement, helping you become a knowledge creator instead of just a content consumer. Marzy gives you gentle nudges toward intentionality, not restrictions.
