Time To Focus vs Wasted

This application allows you to manage your time and focus on what is important to you. Define your tasks with tags, then start the timer and start working. You can also visualize your data with graphs. A widget is available to have a summary of your day at a glance.

Every other screen time app blocks you. Wasted just makes you aware. You don't need another wall between you and your phone — you've tapped "Ignore" on Screen Time limits a hundred times. Wasted is different. It's a nudger, not a blocker. Pick the apps you waste time on (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X…), set a reminder interval, and the moment you go over, Wasted calls you out — with a personality you actually feel. MEET YOUR 5 ARCHETYPES Choose who nudges you. Each one delivers the same wake-up call in a completely different voice: • Minimalist — clean, stoic, no drama. Just the facts. • Satirist — sarcastic and funny. The friend who roasts you with love. • Philosopher — reflective and thought-provoking. Makes you actually think. • Moralist — serious and guilt-driven. No sugar-coating. • Provocateur — aggressive and confrontational. For when you need a slap, not a tap. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps that eat your time. 2. Set how long is "too long." 3. Keep scrolling — Wasted lets you. But the second you cross the line, your archetype fires a notification. Still scrolling? It nudges again, every interval, until you stop. No blocking. No friction wall. No forcing. Just awareness, sharp enough to break the trance. 100% PRIVATE — BY DESIGN • No account. No sign-up. No email. • No cloud. No sync. Nothing leaves your phone. • No analytics. No tracking. No data selling. No ads.

Awareness-based self-control for people who want a tool with a personality, not another sterile productivity app. Stop doom-scrolling. Start noticing.
