AI limits

AI limits is for Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT (Codex limits), Kimi (Kimi Code) and Grok subscribers who want to know where they stand on their usage limits. Independent app, neither affiliated with nor endorsed by Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, Moonshot AI or xAI. "Claude" is a trademark of Anthropic; "Gemini" of Google LLC; ChatGPT and Codex of OpenAI; "Kimi" of Moonshot AI; "Grok" of xAI. FREE FOR 7 DAYS, THEN A ONE-TIME $1.99 PURCHASE The download is free, with every feature for 7 days from the download. After that, without a purchase, real readings, widgets, complications, notifications, Live Activities, Siri and the Apple Watch stop working, and adding an account is blocked. A single in-app purchase, "Full access", at $1.99 (equivalent price in your currency) restores them on iPhone, Mac and Apple Watch with the same Apple ID. No subscription, no Family Sharing. Demo mode stays free, with no time limit. The purchase can be restored in Settings. WHAT YOU SEE • One card per account: percentage used, ring, time left before reset; detail per window and a 7-day history. • When a limit is reached: a countdown to the resume time, then "You can resume". • A pace forecast: "at this pace, limit reached around 4:20 PM". WHEREVER YOU WANT IT • Widgets for the Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy. • Apple Watch: accounts, detail and complications. • Mac: window, widgets and menu bar. • Dynamic Island and Lock Screen: a resume counter when a limit is reached (resume within 8 hours). • Siri and Shortcuts: "Where do I stand with AI limits". NOTIFICATIONS • Alerts at 70, 90 and 100% and when a window resets, scheduled on your device, with no server. They depend on readings taken while the app runs (frequency decided by iOS). SYNC • iCloud option: your devices share the account list and the latest readings through your private iCloud, with no password, cookie or token. CHATGPT (CODEX LIMITS) • Add a ChatGPT account: Codex limits of your subscription (5-hour and weekly, percentage, resume time). A ChatGPT subscription that includes Codex is required; message limits are not tracked. • Tested with ChatGPT Plus; sign-in tested with email only. KIMI (KIMI CODE) • Add a Kimi account: the usage limits of Kimi (Kimi Code) for a Kimi subscription that includes them. Kimi Code API key as an advanced option. GROK • Add a Grok account: the usage limits of Grok for a subscription that includes them. Sign in on Grok's official page, no password stored. Widgets and Watch: for ChatGPT, Kimi and Grok, a reading when iOS allows, otherwise the app's latest reading. PRIVACY • No developer server, no analytics, no ads, no data collection. • You sign in on the official claude.ai, Google, chatgpt.com, Kimi or Grok page, in a window inside the app: it never sees your password. The Claude session goes in the keychain; Gemini's stays in web storage of the app; so do ChatGPT's, Kimi's and Grok's, plus their session cookies in the keychain, to read outside the app. • The app only contacts claude.ai, api.anthropic.com, Google services (gemini.google.com) and, if you add a ChatGPT, Kimi or Grok account, chatgpt.com, kimi.com / kimi.ai or grok.com with their sign-in pages (openai.com, x.ai, accounts.google.com, appleid.apple.com, challenges.cloudflare.com), from your device. • Deleting an account erases its credentials, web session and readings. DEMO MODE No account? Every feature (ChatGPT, Kimi and Grok included) with sample data, no sign-in. GOOD TO KNOW • If a service changes, the app shows a clear message rather than made-up figures until an update. • Google may refuse sign-in inside an embedded window; the app says so. • A paid subscription is required for real readings: Claude (Pro/Max), Gemini (Google AI Pro/Ultra), ChatGPT including Codex, Kimi including Kimi Code or Grok on a subscription that includes its limits.
