Cooldown shows how much of your AI subscriptions you've used before you hit the wall. Link your accounts and see every usage window, credit balance, and reset timer at a glance - in the app and in Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets. Stop getting cut off mid-task because you didn't know you were almost out. SUPPORTS 8 PROVIDERS Claude, ChatGPT / Codex, GitHub Copilot, Gemini, OpenRouter, Antigravity, Cursor, and Grok. Link more than one account per provider. WIDGET-FIRST Pick from a gallery of designs - rings, gauges, bars, battery, countdowns, and multi-account boards - sized for Small, Medium, Large, and the Lock Screen. Choose the design by name; every widget updates on its own. SMART ALERTS (all optional, all on-device) Get a heads-up at your usage thresholds, when a window resets, or when your burn rate says you'll run out before the reset. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account to create. You sign in directly with each provider using their own secure sign-in; the tokens stay in your iPhone's Keychain and your usage is fetched straight from the provider to your device. We never see your tokens, your email, or your usage. The only data we collect is anonymous crash reports and product analytics to keep the app working - never your personal information. Independent app. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic, OpenAI, GitHub, Google, OpenRouter, Anysphere, or xAI. Cooldown offers optional auto-renewing subscriptions: - Plus: $3.99/month or $24.99/year (7-day free trial on annual) - Pro: $6.99/month or $49.99/year (7-day free trial on annual) Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
