Set the timer. Drop the phone in. The lid stays shut until time's up â no willpower, no arguments, no "five more minutes." Homework gets done. Dinner gets talked through. Sleep actually happens.
â 30-day money-back guarantee â Free printable Family Phone Contract with every order
The 2026â27 school year is the first with phone bans across half the country. The homework table and the dinner table are still on you.

Twenty minutes of homework focus or a full evening â you decide how long.
Fits phones of any size â plus handhelds, remotes, and anything else that eats attention.
The lid stays locked until the countdown hits zero. Nobody has to be the bad guy â the box already is.
Every order includes the printable Family Phone Contract (PDF) â the 5-minute agreement that makes the box a family rule, not a punishment.
Launching for back-to-school 2026. Checkout opens soon â email us to reserve launch-week pricing.
Every order includes our printable Family Phone Contract â a one-page agreement you fill in together: when phones go in the box, when they come out, and what everyone (parents included) commits to.
Kids don't fight rules they helped write. That's the whole trick.
The lid stays shut until the timer ends â that's the point. But it's a lock box, not a vault: in a true emergency the case can be broken open. It stops habits, not 911 calls.
Yes â the box fits today's large phones with cases on, and there's room for more than one device at a time.
Honest answer: 8â15 days to US addresses. We'd rather tell you now than surprise you later. Order by mid-August to have it for the first week of school.
30-day money-back guarantee. If the box doesn't change your evenings, email us and we'll refund it â no interrogation.
That's what the Family Phone Contract is for. The box removes the minute-to-minute fight; the contract sets the rule once. Together they work â separately they're just plastic and paper.
If UnplugBox doesn't give you back your evenings, we don't deserve your money. Email us within 30 days of delivery for a full refund.
