Agree on a call duration
Before a conversation, say what you want to discuss and how much time you have. For example: “Can we talk for five minutes about tomorrow’s meeting?” This sets a shared expectation.
TalkTime lets you choose a duration and use an end-of-call musical alert. On iPhone, you end the call yourself; automatic hang-up is a Premium option on compatible Android devices.
This is a way to structure a conversation. TalkTime does not claim to diagnose or treat phone anxiety, and this page provides no evidence of a therapeutic effect.
