LimitWatch vs Limits

LimitWatch is the mobile companion for developers who use AI coding tools. It bridges your Mac-based AI workflows — Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, Copilot, and more — to your iPhone, Apple Watch, and Dynamic Island in real time. KEY FEATURES • Live Activity & Dynamic Island — See your AI session status at a glance: active tool, token usage, approval requests, and session progress. • Push Notifications — Get notified when sessions complete, tools need approval, errors occur, or quotas run low. Never miss an important event. • Multi-Source Monitoring — Track multiple AI tools simultaneously. See which sessions are active, waiting, or completed across all your coding agents. • Approval Flow — Approve or deny tool execution requests directly from your iPhone or Apple Watch. No need to switch back to your Mac. • Quota & Usage Tracking — Monitor your API usage, spending, and remaining quotas across providers like Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google. • Widget & Watch Support — Home Screen widgets and Apple Watch complications keep your AI usage visible without opening the app. • Session Archive — Browse past sessions, review transcripts, and export session data for analysis. • Privacy First — Your canonical AI usage and session data stays on your devices and syncs through Apple iCloud/CloudKit under your own Apple Account. Purpose-separated minimal backends handle only subscription validation and push delivery (device tokens, preferred push locale, pseudonymous account/pairing identifiers, and subscription identifiers/status). Compact notification text required for delivery is processed transiently and is never stored by our push backend. See our privacy policy for full details. LimitWatch works with Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Google Gemini CLI, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Droid (Factory), OpenCode, and more. The Mac companion app (free) installs lightweight hooks into your AI tools, syncs canonical data through iCloud, and delivers compact realtime alerts through APNs. Free tier includes basic monitoring for one source. Upgrade to Lite for the full mobile experience, or Pro for unlimited sources, session archive, automation, and export tools.

Limits shows your AI coding rate limits at a glance. See session usage, weekly quotas, and reset timers for the providers you connect, all in one place. Connect with secure sign in. Limits never sends your tokens to a server. Your tokens stay on your device in the Keychain, and your usage is cached on device so the widgets can read it. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets keep your limits visible without opening the app. Live countdowns keep ticking between refreshes, so you always know how much you have left and when it resets. Supported providers: - Codex (ChatGPT) - Claude Code - Cursor - Grok - Antigravity Why you will like it: - One dashboard for every limit you care about - Ring and bar gauges that stay readable at a glance - Reset countdowns on your Home Screen and Lock Screen - Private by design, with no account required for Limits itself - No ads, no tracking, and no analytics Limits is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic, OpenAI, Anysphere, Google, xAI, or any other provider. Provider names are used only to identify the services you choose to connect. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/stdeula/ Questions or feedback: hi@pranavkarthik.com
