About this app

Joya turns phones off so the night comes alive.

Joya is the platform for venues, clubs and event organizers who want their guests fully present. When guests join your event, Joya gently pauses distracting apps on their phone for the duration — so they dance, connect and live the moment instead of scrolling.

FOR GUESTS
• Join an event in seconds by scanning a QR code
• Essentials like calls stay available while distracting apps and the camera pause
• Capture the night in a shared event album
• Earn rewards and perks by staying present

FOR ORGANIZERS
• Create and manage events from your dashboard
• Set capacity, rewards and rules
• Manage your team and staff
• Live presence monitoring during the event
• Build your guest community

Joya is privacy-first and GDPR compliant. You control your data and can delete your account at any time.

USE OF THE ACCESSIBILITY API (ACCESSIBILITYSERVICE)
On Android, Joya uses the accessibility service only to block distracting apps during an event you have joined. The service detects which app is in the foreground, to show the blocking screen, and recognizes the screens that would let it be turned off during the event. You turn this service on yourself, after reading and accepting the explanation shown in the app. Joya never records, collects or sends your screen content or anything you type. Blocking stops at the end of the event or when you leave the venue.

More presence. More energy. More magic. Set the night free with Joya.
