Just checking social media โ and suddenly an hourโs gone by? BSpace gently reminds you to pause at intervals you choose โ for example, every 3โ5 minutes โ helping you notice when a quick check turns into endless scrolling. Take a breath, then decide whether to continue. Daily limits and work or sleep schedules help you set additional boundaries. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
Kayis
Read full descriptionHide full description
Kayis blocks the apps that eat your day. A real, system-level block โ not a notification you swipe away. You pick the apps you want limited, and Kayis actually blocks them: during focus sessions, when your daily limit runs out, or inside protection routines you set for sleep, study and work. Blocking runs through Apple's Screen Time framework, so you can't get around it by closing Kayis or deleting it. FOCUS SESSIONS THAT HOLD YOU TO IT One session or Pomodoro rounds, at three levels of strictness: โข Flexible โ end it whenever you want. โข Normal โ we confirm before you end, and you earn a point per minute. โข Strict โ every app except Kayis is blocked, no early exit, no app breaks, and two points per minute. A DAILY LIMIT PER APP Set minutes for each app on its own. It blocks the moment the time runs out, and opens again tomorrow. ROUTINES THAT RUN THEMSELVES Name a routine, pick its days and hours: sleep, study, work, or time away from the phone. It starts and stops without you opening the app, and you choose which apps each one blocks. A PLANNED BREAK INSTEAD OF A RELAPSE If you need a blocked app, you choose how long the break is and why โ then the block returns on its own. Breaks are deliberately limited, and strict sessions have none at all. YOUR USAGE, IN FRONT OF YOU See today's screen time, where it went, and your trend across the week โ drawn by iOS itself, inside the app. ARABIC-FIRST Designed in Arabic, right-to-left โ not translated into it. Full English included. YOUR PRIVACY Your screen-time numbers never leave your iPhone. iOS draws them inside a sealed Apple extension, and Kayis itself never receives them or uploads them anywhere. We don't store your app names and we can't see them โ that's how Screen Time itself works. No ads, no tracking. And you can start without an account. โโโโโโ FREE: โข 3 apps โข Two protection routines โข 25- and 45-minute focus sessions KAYIS PLUS: โข Strict mode and session lock โข Pomodoro rounds and custom session lengths โข Unlimited apps โข Unlimited routines โข A daily limit per app โข Allowlist mode: everything blocked except what you choose โข Commitment reward: 50 points monthly, 300 annually One week free for new subscribers, then SAR 9.99 per month or SAR 59.99 per year.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Kayis at 16.0 against BSpace's 26.5. On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
