Profile
Created a family app with an unusual goal: get families to stop using it as quickly as possible. Instead of optimizing for engagement, we optimize for "graduation" - families use it for 45days to build connection habits, then delete it and continue offline.All data stays completely local (IndexedDB + localStorage fallback) -no servers, no accounts, no data collection. Families own their data and can export/delete everything with one tap.The counter intuitive result: families who used it least after month 1had the best long-term outcomes. They'd developed the capability they needed and moved on to independent family wellness.This made us realize most family apps have the wrong success metrics
