Your screen time, next to your friends'. Least time wins. 5 hours a day on your phone is 76 days a year. Daboo helps you win them back by turning it into a daily race with the people who'll actually notice. IT TRACKS ITSELF Give Daboo Screen Time access once and it counts your daily total automatically. Nothing to type, nothing to remember. SET A GOAL Pick a daily limit and see every day against it. Time over your goal shows up in orange, so a bad week is obvious at a glance. RACE YOUR FRIENDS A daily leaderboard ranks you and your friends by who used their phone least. Switch between yesterday, your 7-day average and your 30-day average. KNOW WHERE YOU STAND A morning notification tells you how you placed, and a weekly recap shows how your week went. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Only a rounded daily total leaves your phone, never which apps you used, and only friends you add can see it. No ads. No third-party trackers. Delete your account and all your data any time. Put the phone down. Your friends will notice.

PushPass's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
