Hand approaches the cheek, chin, forehead, or brow
The camera has a clear view and Awaira detects the approach toward the face/head area.
For skin picking and face picking during screen time
A skin picking app that brings attention back before the face touch becomes automatic.
Awaira gives a gentle cue when a hand moves toward your face or head while you are focused on a task. It works as a private awareness prompt; it does not require you to log every moment manually.
On iPhone, awareness runs only while Awaira is open. Choose another device or try the browser with Google sign-in.

A real use case: you are absorbed in a task.
When your attention is deep in a project, scrolling, editing, or browsing, it can be hard to notice the first touch. Awaira is built for that earlier movement rather than a claim about what happened at the skin.
There is a moment to check in
You might put both hands on the desk, reach for a planned alternative, close a mirror, or simply notice what is happening. Awaira does not judge the reason for the movement.
For face picking, acne picking, and the first hand movement.
People use different words for the same difficult moment. Awaira notices a hand approaching the face while the camera has a clear view. It does not inspect your skin or decide why you touched it.
Face picking and dermatillomania
If you need a face picking app or dermatillomania app during computer time, Awaira can offer a cue before an automatic face touch. It does not identify picking, diagnose a condition, or replace professional support.
Acne picking
An acne picking app cannot know whether a spot is being squeezed from hand movement alone. Awaira can prompt you as your hand approaches your face, including during browsing or video calls. For mirror-focused picking, see our acne picking guide.
A cue tied to the approach
A face picking reminder app can be more useful when the reminder arrives as your hand moves. Awaira works as a camera app for skin picking awareness while the app is active and your hand is visible. It also cues ordinary face touches.
Keep a private picture of your patterns.
Use the cue in the moment, and use patterns and reflections only when they help you understand your own routine.
Set it up around the task, not around perfection.
