Stop trying to get money
The app is good for blocking apps but just let us block more apps we don’t need to buy premium to block more apps thats just stupid. If you want us to be better at controlling our screen time then let us block apps rather us buying premium to do it!
Free version is actually good
Unlike most screen time apps, the free version actually does most of what you want a screen time app to do, like the pushup counter, multiple apps, open limits, and screen time limits. Thanks!
It’s ok I guess. Android users left out. No way to view challenge status at end.
Developer seems to not care about android users at all. The android app exists but is severely limited. Can’t join or participate in challenges. So some of our group is completely left out. Also at the end of group challenge there’s no way to see the stats of who was the winner or really how anyone else did at all. It just ends and is gone and if you’re not looking you will miss it. Ironic for an app whose advertised goal is to reduce screen time. Gotta watch it like a hawk or you miss the challenge results completely. Nobody in our 6 person group really knows who won last time. Or the time before. But whatever.

Almost Perfect
Absolutely love this app! Definitely helps me limit my scrolling time. The push-up challenge helps keep me in great shape, so it’s almost like having a bonus gym membership, as well—definitely more than worth the price tag.
That being said, there are a few updates that would make it perfect:
(1) if you need to use your app but don’t have any exercise minutes banked, you have to exit any challenge you’re currently participating in. I’ve had times where I need to use an app just for a minute or two (example to find party invite information on a social media account), but I’m out in public and can’t do push-ups. It’s demoralizing to have to leave a challenge. It would be nice to have a minute allotment set aside each day for that type of emergency use.
(2) If you start a challenge for a period of several days, you can’t switch between easy, medium, and hard modes without leaving and losing all your minutes. It’s problematic because depending on how many push-ups I’ve done the day before, my muscles may be fatigued and unable to sustain the same level of activity. At one point I actually developed an overuse injury—I was down for a little over a month, and my screen time sky-rocketed as a result!I manage the problem by sticking to one day challenges, but it would be nice to have the option to enter a longer length challenge and toggle between difficulties depending on how your muscles feel that day.
A near perfect app! Will happily bump to five stars with a few updates.

Exactly what it says on the tin
Its a class app to stop you from doomscrolling and that typa stuff so yeah.
Very nice 👍
This is really good app, I’ve had it for 3 days and my screen time has already gone down by almost two hours, my only issues with it are how you can only block one app without paying money, and when you do pay it’s pretty expensive, also on the push-up challenge like 1/4 of the time it just doesn’t realize you completed a push-up but it’s definitely the best app you can choose for reducing screen time for free in my opinion so far.

Thank you clearspace
I thought this would be one of those apps where you have it for a day, then get sick off it and delete it. Finishing your squats, pushups, or steps feels like you’ve completed something. It makes you feel a sense of pride and determination. This is my first month and my screen time has drastically improved. Thanks you clearspace

Paywall
This app seems fine until you have to pay just to block more than one app I hate to be one of those people but why do I have to pay to stop being on my phone???
No longer addicted…
Such a great app to help mitigate my phone addiction. It was recommended by my therapist! Thank you ClearSpace
fine
great except when i try to use a minute or more, it blocks me out instantly and when i see how many minutes i have left, it still used those minutes as if it let me.
Horrible app
It’s like a virus it doesn’t let you install and changes your settings and turns on the setting for “don’t allow uninstalling apps”. Horrible app overall and is locked behind a subscription
Add sit ups
Pls add some sort of sit up or ab exercise to help me become more well rounded
Testimony From a Teenage Phone Addict
The app truly helped limit the time I spent on certain apps. I used to have time limits on my phone but they were way too easy to bypass and I even resorted to deleting certain apps but had to constantly reinstall them because they also had message features (ex: insta) or had practical applications beyond entertainment, which still kept me hooked. Then I tried this app, skeptical at first but it really did help: it takes longer to bypass than Apple screen time limits which help counter spontaneity, it shows a line of dots representing how many time you’ve opened an app which I find helped me realize the true extent of my screen time, it allows you to block apps so easily, it allows you to unlock apps for an hour or a day on special circumstances which helped when I wanted to play a game with my friend for an extended period of time but still wanted to keep it blocked for my individual use, and it allows you to do workout challenges in order to unlock screen time (which isn’t my favorite feature because you had to do workouts to unlock the apps and I have insta blocked, but couldn’t bypass the workouts with the regular “unlock for an hour or for a day” features when there were irl issues that had to be resolved through instagram communication). Also, a slight complication is that I don’t see the instagram notification icon and don’t receive notifications from this app when it is blocked and would like to to see whether I received messages or not which forces me to open the app once everyday just to check and I end up getting messages and notifications late. Thus, I feel like the app could adjust certain features around instagram’s messaging features. However, over all, those slight complications constitute such a small portion of the app and I would definitely recommend using it if you want to help your phone use habits. I’m so glad to have used it.

One other request
I love this app but can you add either a “5 more minutes” button or a “5 minute warning” feature or even a 2 minute warning. The shock to my system every time I get suddenly shut out of an app mid-sentence or mid-word does not make it easy to then transition into work/study mode. Thank you :)
Maybe not the intended goal
Downloaded to stop scrolling but ended up being able to do 50 pushups nonstop
Yay
Yay
Great!!!
ClearSpace has helped so so so much and I encourage you to download ClearSpace.
Im amazed
This app is one of the best on the AppStore and I suggest all teenagers do try it if the have difficulty to reduce their screen time. It a amazing idea from the developers to make it free for students I hope it stays like that and I hope my friend will listen to me and download it to.
Does what it says
I’m a student that struggles with adhd and heavy procrastination. I downloaded this app hoping I would be a little more productive at home. It didn’t eliminate my procrastination completely but it certainly helped. I would pull out my phone frequently to scroll twitter, TikTok, or instagram and then I’d be stopped because I had to do the ever dreaded push ups to scroll. While it helps with my natural procrastination, obviously, it won’t stop executive dysfunction but, no app can do that so, no marks off. This app just works for me.
