Stop nail biting with AI webcam monitoring

Hands Off helps you stop nail biting by using AI to monitor your webcam and detect when you're biting your nails. The moment nail biting is detected, the app instantly interrupts you with a screen overlay, stopping the habit before it happens.

Why Hands Off works when other solutions fail

Bitter nail polish? You bite through it. Fidget toys? You forget to use them. Habit trackers? They only work after you've already bitten your nails. The problem with nail biting is that it happens unconsciously during stress, focus, or boredom, you don't realize you're doing it until it's too late.

Hands Off solves this by automatically catching you in the act. Real-time AI detection monitors your hands 24/7 while you work or study, interrupting nail biting the instant it starts. No willpower needed, no manual tracking required.

Key features:

Detects hands near your face in real time using on-device AI.
Interrupts habits instantly with overlays and popups.
All camera analysis runs locally; nothing is uploaded to the cloud.
Supports multiple BFRBs like nail biting and skin picking.
Customize facial zones that trigger interventions to match your patterns.
Runs on MacOS and Windows

Created by a former chronic nail biter who tried everything else first. Hands Off is the nail biting solution that finally works when you're not paying attention.
