PREMIUM — PURCHASE REQUIRED: All features described below are part of Pro and require a purchase: a weekly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Log your screen time by hand — and finally notice it. ScreenTimeLog is a manual screen time diary: after a scroll session you open the app, log the minutes, tag the category, and note how you felt. No automatic tracking, no blocking, no judgment — just the honest act of writing it down. That act is the whole point. Automatic trackers count minutes you never look at. Writing "45 min · Social · felt drained" with your own thumb is a mindfulness practice — and it is the moment your habits start to change. Because every entry carries a mood, ScreenTimeLog can show you the one chart no automatic report has: whether your heavy phone days actually feel worse. WHAT YOU GET • Open the app and see today at a glance — 2h 14m logged, 3 entries, and a day streak you will not want to break • A donut of where the day really went — Social, Streaming, Games, Productivity, Reading — so "I was busy" becomes "I scrolled for 90 minutes" • A mood on every entry, from Drained to Refreshed, feeding a scatter chart of mood vs screen time with a plain-language verdict on your pattern • Daily limits per category with a live bar that turns amber at 80% and red when you blow past it • Detox goals like "Screen-free dinner" or "No phone first hour", with weekly targets and screen-free streaks • A gentle reminder at the hour you choose, so the diary actually gets written every evening PERFECT FOR • Anyone who has seen the built-in weekly screen time report, winced for ten seconds, and changed nothing • People running a digital detox or 7-day social media detox who want a written record, not another blocker • Journalers who want phone habits and mood in one private place • Anyone who suspects doomscrolling drags their mood down — and wants proof either way WHY NOT JUST USE THE BUILT-IN REPORT? Because passive numbers do not change behavior. The OS tells you a total on Sunday; a diary makes you face each session the day it happens. And no automatic report knows how you felt, lets you set a "Screen-free dinner" goal, or shows whether your worst-mood days are your heaviest-scroll days. Manual is not a limitation here — it is the method. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your diary stays on your iPhone. No account, no cloud, no analytics on your entries. What you log is nobody's business but yours. PREMIUM (PURCHASE REQUIRED) ScreenTimeLog Pro unlocks unlimited category limits, unlimited detox goals, the full Insights tab — trends, category breakdown, and mood-vs-screen-time correlation — plus CSV export of your entire log. Pro is available as a weekly subscription, a yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Tonight, before bed, log today's minutes. That one honest entry is where less screen time starts.
