Star Tasks vs Screen Time Control

Welcome to Star Tasks – a gamified approach for you to stop procrastinating and complete planned tasks and chores. Make your brain *want* to accomplish todos the way best games make you want to play them – by leveraging interactions that release dopamine and make your conscious fancy being productive. You finish a task – you get a star! As simple as that. Star Tasks is a polished little app that feels at home on your device with familiar features like Widgets, Live Activities, App Intents, Alternative Icons and more. It doesn’t require you to log in or be connected to the internet, doesn’t have ads and doesn’t sell any data of yours. One of the things you won’t find anywhere else is a mechanic called Achievements. Star Tasks offers a great amount of features which aren’t available when you download the app. You first need to actually “achieve” them by collecting certain amount of stars, setting goals certain amount of days etc. So the more productive you are, the more features are available to you. This is yet another step Star Tasks takes to help you gamify the daily routines and make it enjoyable to being effective. Achievements and corresponding features are activated for Gold members but if you don’t feel like subscribing to Gold, that’s ok, all the progress will be saved behind the scenes and when you’re ready, those features will be waiting for you Terms and Conditions (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Inscreen is more than a screen time tracker. Inscreen helps you pause and reflect on your screen time at regular intervals throughout the day. Designed for simplicity and privacy, Inscreen has minimal features and a zero learning curve, helping you get started quickly. ⏵ HOW IS INSCREEN DIFFERENT? Unlike other screen time apps that completely block access, Inscreen draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you recognize your screen time habits through regular prompts and inculcate healthier behaviours without restrictions. ⏵ WHY IT WORKS? We tap into a few key psychological principles and behavioural patterns. Here’s why it works: - Awareness = Better Choices: Regular reminders to ask whether you're on your phone intentionally, encouraging healthier choices. - Guiding, not controlling: Instead of strict limits, scheduled subtle nudges to guide you toward mindful decisions, without the frustration of restrictions. - Accountability: Weekly progress, actionable insights and daily notifications leading to lasting behaviour changes. - Low barrier to entry: No drastic changes or restrictions, making it easy to integrate into daily life and gradually adjust over time. ⏵ FEATURES - Alerts to be intentional about your screen time. - Focus sessions to completely block distracting apps for a set routine, say, during work or winding down at night. - Strict daily limits to keep your screen time in control. - Notifications that help you track your daily activity. - Secure and private. All your data stays on your device. ⏵ HOW DOES THE SETUP WORK? 1. Choose the distracting apps or categories. 2. Set a daily limit. 3. Set up focus sessions (optional). ⏵ FINANCIAL AID We’re on a mission to solve phone addiction and distraction. We’re determined to help everyone. Our Financial Aid program offers a free 1 year subscription to individuals who are financially stretched but are in need.
