Looking at my screen time stats, I spend most of my phone time in the browser. Is there a way to restrict specific websites instead of the browser as a whole?
We let him use our phone to look at family videos while we are changing him. If I turn the phone off abruptly, it can be frustrating for him at times. However, if I manually dim the screen more and more (and lower the volume more and more), it feels natural that the phone is getting "tired". He is then okay with leaving the phone.
Really cool! I did try One Sec, but actually setting up the shortcut to divert is quite tedious, and it only works at the point of opening the restricted app. I like the UI, just wondering if the 'Breathe' prompt will get old quite quickly. I created an app ( https://www.lungy.app ) that tries to make each breathing session feel very different, hopefully making it feel fresh each time - I wonder if more variation wou…
I’ve been using Screen zen for quite some time now. I found it to be incredibly useful. Curious to know how clearspace is different from screenzen, given the latter is free on app store. https://apps.apple.com/in/app/screenzen-screen-time-control/...
- social accountability via teammates
- data reporting and streaks - we think displaying habit-change progress should have a cumulative and compounding effect. streaks are proving particularly effective for our users in this regard
- website support for non-safari browsers
- more complex scheduling - Screenzen will let you specify 1-3pm on MWF, for example, but not 1-3pm and 9-11pm MWF)
- much, much more to come. we're building for the cross platform future
This is really cool, like incredibly cool.
Screen Time reminders just did not work for me, it was a no-brainer to just hit "Get more time" and put in my passcode, but this adds a lot more friction.
Still, I think it's a bandaid on a larger problem, and if I was truly addicted (which I very well could be), I would just change the settings or uninstall the app. Not a problem you can solve, of course, but this is still a great leap forward.
If one needs to use an app to reduce the time spent on apps, then the person already has no self control. Since your app promotes such ideology of people who are slaves to technology,this app actually promotes such a repressive machine dependent society. Technology is supposed to serve society not rule or govern its habits. People should be taught to use technology not be a slave to it by using non-technology means.…
Wow. I didn't know Apple let apps have that level of restriction on other installed apps. Perhaps I'm behind on my iOS APIs. I'd be eager to learn more on what kind of parental-control/screen-time magic goes into this. This is really cool, like incredibly cool.

This is great. When do you plan to release the Android version?
