What's New in Run Your Time

1.8.1

July 20, 2026

Fixed a bug where a screen time session could get stuck at "0s remaining" and couldn't be stopped — open the app once after updating and it will clear itself. Pausing a session now re-blocks your apps immediately and banks your unused time for later.

Why say it’s free if it’s not

You gave to pay to use the app might as well just exercise for the time you spent on your phone the day before without an app

impossible to pass the free trial page

I used this earlier in the year and loved it, but now that I’ve re-downloaded it and I’m trying to use it, it only allows me to try out the free trial. Not sure where you’re supposed to get the free version

Simple and sometimes to simple

Nice app which fulfils the use case for this app. The price is very high for a simple app. New Options like not getting your saved time deleted by Sunday and starting with a given screen time would be very nice.

3 Stars because of the missing features and the price for the premium version
