Cooldown

Read full description

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.

About

Quota Board

Features
Read full description

Quota Board shows Claude and Codex usage for multiple accounts, each provider on its own tab and reorderable within it. It renders the limit windows each service actually returns instead of assuming every plan has the same pair. WHAT IT SHOWS • A tab for Claude and a tab for Codex, at the same level, each refreshed by pulling down • An optional automatic order that puts the account whose weekly limit resets soonest first • 5-hour, 7-day, 30-day, model-specific, and named additional windows when reported • Claude extra-usage spending and Codex reset-credit availability when reported • The age of every reading. A stale accumulating value is marked with ≄ because it is an honest lower bound, not a current fact • Unknown data as unknown — never silently converted to 0% • English and Korean • A built-in mixed-provider demo before signing in WHAT IT CANNOT DO • Send prompts, messages, or inference requests, or consume reset credits • Ask for, capture, or store a claude.ai or ChatGPT session cookie • Import credentials owned by Claude Code or Codex • Sync credentials or back them up to another device SIGNING IN Claude uses browser OAuth and asks only for profile information. Anthropic does not offer third-party client registration, so its page displays Claude Code; Quota Board explains that before opening it. Codex uses OpenAI's device-code flow. Device login may need to be enabled in ChatGPT Security or by a workspace administrator. OpenAI does not offer a usage-only Codex scope, so the credential itself is not read-only; Quota Board's shipped code has no inference or reset-consume route and reads usage only. Codex and ChatGPT Work share usage for the selected workspace. Tokens stay in the iOS Keychain. Every request uses an honest User-Agent beginning quota-board/. PRIVACY No analytics, no Quota Board account, and no servers of ours. The app talks directly to Anthropic or OpenAI. Removing an account deletes its local credential and attempts provider revocation. Quota Board is independent and is not made by, endorsed by, or affiliated with Anthropic or OpenAI. Claude, Anthropic, ChatGPT, Codex, and OpenAI are trademarks of their respective owners, used only to identify the services the app reads.
