How do Squads work on Jomo?

Since October 2023 🎉, Jomo lets you share your screen time with those close to you. Whether it's family members, friends, colleagues, or a community, turn your screen time goal into a collective challenge! 🤝
‎

Squads are like a scoreboard. Every day, the screen time you spend on your phone is displayed on a board alongside that of other participants. The goal is to have the least amount of screen time to become the leader of the day. In a second section, you'll find the weekly ranking — aim to have the least screen time most often to become the leader of the week. Finally, you'll see your Squad's position (average time per day) compared to the national average (based on the country your iPhone is set to).
‎

➕ How to create a Squad?
