Today we launched the official Polar Bear Helps page on Facebook. It’s another step in building our presence outside Kickstarter and a place where we’ll share short updates, materials, and project progress.

Feel free to follow — this is just the beginning.
Today I’m preparing the official Polar Bear Helps page on Facebook. It’s another small step in building PBH’s presence outside Kickstarter. Once it’s ready, I’ll share the link.
Today I shared the first promo codes for the Polar Bear Helps app. It’s a small bonus for people who are supporting the project at this early stage.
The codes work on a first‑come, first‑served basis. If you want to try PBH early — just take one.

Today I did something symbolic: I ordered the domain polarbearhelps.com. It’s one of those moments when a project stops being just an app and starts becoming a place. A home. A direction.
We’re planning to launch a dedicated website under this domain — a space created only for Polar Bear Helps.
Today we officially launched the Polar Bear Helps campaign on Kickstarter. It’s an important moment for us — a project we’ve been working on for many months is now public and can reach people who enjoy supporting simple, useful tools.
Here’s the link to the campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/polarbearhelps/polar-bear-helps/
In the campaign, we focus on what matters most: a calm, clear approach to technology. PBH is meant to help, not distract. It’s designed to work quietly in the background and make everyday life easier.
The next few days will be intense — talking with early backers, answering questions, gathering feedback, and watching the project begin to live its own life.
If you’d like to support us, share the campaign, or simply take a look behind the scenes, you’re very welcome. Every form of support makes a difference.
Thank you for being with us at this stage.
Work on our Kickstarter campaign is entering its final stage. All forms, data, and required information have been completed and approved. It’s been a long but necessary process — thanks to it, the project is now fully polished from the formal side.
Only one element remains: the video. This will be the first contact new people have with the idea of Polar Bear Helps. We want it to be simple, calm, and true to what PBH really is — a tool designed to help, not distract.
If everything goes according to plan, the campaign will launch later this week. This is an important moment for us and a step toward the further development of the project.
Thank you for being with us at this stage. We’ll share the campaign link soon.
Today something important happened — Polar Bear Helps has officially landed on Google Play. It’s the first moment when this project steps out of my desk and starts living its own rhythm.
It’s a small app with a simple idea: to help, to simplify, and to bring a bit of order where there’s usually chaos. No fireworks, no distractions, no unnecessary features. It just works.
This is only the beginning. There are more steps ahead, more ideas, and more pieces of a larger system I’m building — but today I’m celebrating this one, specific fact:
Polar Bear Helps is now available to everyone.
If you want to see how it works — feel free to check it out. And I’m getting back to work, because this is just the start of the machine.
We’re beginning the process of translating Polar Bear Helps into RTL (right‑to‑left) languages. It’s another step toward greater accessibility and opening the app to new communities.
If you use an RTL language in your daily life, feel free to leave a comment. I’d like to make sure the languages we add reflect what users actually need.
A small step, but an important one for the project’s growth.
Polar Bear Helps has officially been approved for release on Google Play. A meaningful milestone — the moment when the project steps out of the testing phase and begins its own independent life.
Thank you to everyone who helped me reach this point: testers, observers, quiet supporters, and those who shared precise, thoughtful feedback. Congratulations to us — this is a shared achievement.
Polar Bear Helps is ready for its next chapter.
Polar Bear Helps was created as a simple tool to soften the screen and reduce sensory overload. On Android this works naturally — the app can apply a filter across the entire system, giving users real relief no matter which app they are using.
On iOS it’s different. Apps operate inside a sandbox, which means the filter can only cover the app itself, not the entire screen. Because of this limitation, I’m unable to bring Polar Bear Helps to the iPhone in a way that preserves its purpose and functionality.
This post is therefore an open invitation to Apple. If there is a possibility of collaboration, a dedicated API, or an extension of existing accessibility features, I would be happy to adapt Polar Bear Helps for iOS so that iPhone users can benefit from it as well.
It’s a small project with a clear goal: to help people who need a simple tool to calm the screen and regain control over sensory input.
If Apple sees value in this — I’m ready to talk.
