Screen Time Log vs Circuit

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.

Your phone is built to keep you scrolling. Circuit is built to stop it. Trip the breaker and the apps you can't put down stop opening. No negotiation, no notification to swipe away — the app just doesn't come up until your time is done. THE BREAKER Hold the dial and your apps close: 15 minutes, 30, an hour and a half, or a whole quiet day. Start it in the app, from Control Center, or by asking Siri. A Live Activity keeps the timer on your Lock Screen the whole time. SCHEDULES Name a set of apps and give it hours. Study on weekday evenings. Sleep from 22:30 to 07:00. Work nine to five. Schedules run themselves, so being disciplined stops being something you have to remember. FRICTION, NOT WILLPOWER Reach for a blocked app and there's a breath to take, a countdown to sit through, or a sentence to type before anything opens. Usually the urge is gone before the timer is. STRICT MODE For the sessions that matter: no early exit, no five more minutes. You set it, and that's that. DAILY LIMITS Give one app a budget — thirty minutes of Instagram a day. When it's spent, it's spent until tomorrow. ALWAYS ALLOWED Some apps are never blocked, whatever else is running. Maps, your bank, whoever you'd need at 2am. SOUND TO WORK TO Rain, a fire, waves, brown noise, or a slow wordless pulse. One at a time, playing under whatever else you're listening to, and it keeps going with the screen off. 28 LEGENDARY COINS Every milestone earns a famous coin of ancient Greece or Rome: the owl of Athens for a schedule kept to the end, Caesar's elephant, the Colosseum of Titus, and for a thousand days in a row the gold EID MAR aureus of Brutus, one of three known. Tap the coin on Home to see all 28 and what each one takes. Every coin you earn opens its story, a few things most people don't know about it, what one sold for at auction, and the museums where you can see one. Real coins, every fact checked against museum and auction records. HONEST NUMBERS Time blocked each day, your streak, this week against last, and a report every Sunday. Your real Screen Time usage sits alongside it, drawn by Apple itself. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION No account. Circuit blocks through Apple's Screen Time, which means it cannot see which apps you picked — only draw their icons. Your choices, schedules and stats stay on your phone. What leaves it is an anonymous count of which screens get opened — one switch in Settings stops it — and a crash report if Circuit falls over. Circuit Pro is $59.99/year with a 7-day free trial, $12.99/month, or $4.99/week. One subscription covers your Family Sharing group. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends; manage or cancel it in App Store settings.
