Request on Limit Days

I have been using Limit for a couple day now and it really helps! But I have to travel a lot on the weekends and the only thing I really do in a five hour car ride is watch social media. So it would be nice if you could change the app where you can specialize different time limits for different days. Like so Monday through Thursday I could have a shorter time limit, cause I’ll be at home but Friday through Saturday I will have a longer limit because I’m traveling. Thanks for taking my request in!

Hi Jennifer, thanks so much for the detailed suggestion! Custom limits by day is a great idea, especially for a schedule like yours. We'll pass this along to the team as a feature request. Glad Limit's been helping so far!

Thanks for the feedback! We'd love to help sort this out, sounds like you might be running into an issue changing your time limit after it's set. Could you reach out to our support team so we can take a closer look? They'll be able to help. Email us at support@freedom.to and ask to talk to an agent. Thanks!

Synergy with Freedom

I used ‘Freedom’ for general blocklists, but I found it too restrictive for things like social media. ‘Limit’ is the perfect partner app to give me that added degree of flexibility.

Love this combo! 🙌 Freedom for the heavy lifting and Limit for that extra flexibility on things like social media is exactly how they're designed to work together. Thanks for sharing how you use both!

It’s great but one big flaw

I’ve paid for Freedom for ages and love it, but something like Limit is what I’ve wanted for ages. Unfortunately though you can just edit what apps are selected, and increase the timer, anytime you pause the timer, which kind of defeats the purpose. If it was as strict as Freedom it’d be perfect.

Hi there! Thanks so much for being a longtime Freedom user, and for taking the time to share this. That's really valuable feedback on Limit, we'll pass along the idea of tighter controls around editing selections and timers to the product team. Glad to hear the core experience is working well for you otherwise!

Please explain

I don’t understand I woke up and it said on my screen time has been used, but I haven’t been on my phone at all in the day and it was only 9 AM so I don’t understand why I couldn’t unlock any of my apps even though I hadn’t been on my phone the entire day. it’s a good app but I just don’t understand. It doesn’t make sense to me why I can’t go on any of these apps please explain.

How does the app help me control my screen time?

The app allows you to choose your digital distractions and set a daily time limit for them. When you open a blocked app, your time budget starts ticking. Once your limit is reached, those apps remain blocked for the rest of the day, encouraging intentional usage.

Yes, the app is completely free. It does not have any subscriptions, upsells, or advertisements, allowing you to use its features without any cost.

Who is this app designed for?

This app is for anyone who feels their scrolling time is being stolen and wants to regain control. It's ideal for individuals looking to improve focus, be more present with family, or reclaim time for creative pursuits by making their phone usage more intentional.
