WhistleOut.com, a leading consumer comparison site for mobile and internet plans, has announced the launch of the "Dumbphone Dreamer" challenge. This unique contest invites legal US residents aged 18 and above to ditch their smartphones for 30 days and embrace the simplicity of a "dumbphone."
Max McCaskill, a mobile expert, emphasizes the potential of smartphones to become massive time sinks and a major source of anxiety. With this challenge, WhistleOut aims to encourage participants to take a break from screens and enjoy a more simplified, less digitally connected summer.
The "Dumbphone Dreamer" challenge, which starts accepting applications from July 7, 2025, offers an attractive prize for those willing to take on the screen-free challenge. The selected participant will receive $1,000, a new "dumbphone," a 1-year Mint Mobile annual phone plan credit, anti-screentime swag, an annual National Parks Pass, The Game of Phones party game, a $50 Barnes & Noble gift card, a digital camera, and of course, the dumbphone itself.
The deadline for applications is August 4, 2025, at 11:59 pm MT. The winner of the challenge will be announced on WhistleOut.com and their socials on August 8, 2025.

By offering this challenge, they hope to help people reclaim their time, stop doomscrolling, and even save money on their phone bill. The "Dumbphone Dreamer" challenge is open to anyone who wants a break from nonstop notifications and a taste of pre-smartphone peace.
