Yutora
Read full descriptionHide full description
Keep what lies past the moment you close. There are plenty of ways to cut down. Yutora cares about what's left afterwards. You read a book. Took a walk. Talked with someone. Finished a film. Rested. Time like that is kept as Your Time, with a photo or a few words. Time that used to slip past, turned into time that stays. Not how many minutes you cut, but what they left. β One pause before you open Social media you opened without noticing. Scrolling you don't remember. Yutora doesn't ban it. Posting, keeping in touch, looking things up can all stay. It only puts one fork in the road before a glance turns into an hour: watch, or close. From opening without thinking, to opening because you chose to. β You decide how much time it gets Yutora treats your daily social media time less as a limit than a budget. Rather than pushing away apps you need, you decide, and stop once it's spent. Not a system for quitting social media, but one for not spending your day on it. β Closing the app isn't the end This is where Yutora differs. It doesn't block social media and then tell you to read or exercise instead. That time is kept inside Yutora β choose not to watch, and start Your Time there. - Reading - Walking - Studying - Making things - Films - Time with family - Rest Five minutes is fine, and so is doing nothing. With the timer, "thirty minutes I didn't watch" becomes "thirty minutes I chose." β Yutora doesn't decide what good time is Study more. Exercise. Read a book. Yutora sets no such answers. Some days you push hard, some days you play, some days you do nothing. What matters is stepping back and being able to choose. Whatever "good" lies past is yours to find. β Keep the day with a photo or a few words If something in that time is worth keeping, keep it. - Days you leave a photo - Days you leave only a line - Days you leave nothing Any of them is fine. Not to collect likes, but so that later you can think: "this is how I was spending my time." β It builds up, starting today Today β what your time went to. This Week β what rhythm the last seven days had. Change β what has built up as you kept going. Not reports for competing on numbers. A quiet record of where your time went. β You don't have to quit social media There are good things there, and connections that matter. Yutora doesn't treat social media as bad. The only time worth cutting is this: "I actually wanted to do something else, and then the time was gone." To widen your life with social media, without spending your life on it. β Free to start Premium widens how many apps you watch and the hours they stay closed, plus longer spans, more photos and keepsakes. Yearly Β₯5,980 / Monthly Β₯880, with a 14-day free trial on the yearly plan. If you stop Premium, what you've kept is not deleted. Today stays. Even ten minutes that would usually slip past may become time that stays, if you choose it.

Scroll Timer
Read full descriptionHide full description
You did not decide to spend forty minutes there. That is the whole problem: the minutes were never said out loud, so nothing ever compared them to anything. Scroll Timer is a ledger for phone sessions. Before you open something, you say what it is and how many minutes you mean to spend. When you stop, it shows the one number it exists for: the gap between what you said and what happened. HOW IT WORKS β’ Pick a context β social, video, news, shopping, games, messages, work, reading, other. β’ Say the minutes. A short pause runs first β a few seconds you choose, or none at all. β’ Stop when you stop. The gap gets written down. β’ Decided not to open it after all? Log a pass. Not opening is an entry too. THE DAY AS ONE STRIP Your day is drawn as a single 24-hour strip: the minutes you planned in one colour, the part that ran over in another. One look tells you where the day actually went. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO β’ Blocks nothing. No app is hidden, locked or delayed against your will. β’ Asks for no permissions. Not Screen Time, not Family Controls, not location. β’ Reads no system data. It cannot see which apps you open or for how long β every minute in the ledger comes from a session you started yourself. That is the design, not a missing feature. A lock you can uninstall in a weak moment measures nothing. A written record does. WHAT ELSE IS IN IT β’ Rest of day: where today lands if it carries on like your last two weeks did, with your daily budget drawn as a line. β’ Trends: day streak, weekly average, monthly total and contexts used, plus a month calendar showing which days stayed inside your budget. β’ Challenges that refresh every day, week and month. β’ 80 achievements across bronze, silver and gold, with levels and XP. β’ A session you forget to stop is closed at the length you planned and marked as an estimate β never a silent six-hour entry. You can correct the end time afterwards. β’ CSV export of every entry. β’ Works offline. No account, no sign-up, no analytics; nothing leaves your phone. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS This is a record of what you told it, not a measurement of your phone. It makes no health claims and promises no reduction. It shows the difference between what you said and what happened, in minutes, and leaves the decision to you. PRICING Recording sessions is part of Scroll Timer Pro: β’ A recurring subscription, with the first period at a reduced price β’ Or a one-time purchase that never renews Reading your ledger and exporting it stay free. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.
