There are a couple other similar popular screen time apps, such as Opal [1] and one sec [2]. They both also operate on a similar freemium / IAP model. For comparison, ClearSpace falls in the middle price-wise: - Opal: $20/mo, $100/yr, $300–400/lifetime (4.7/5 stars with 6.1k ratings) - one sec: $4/mo, $15/yr, $40/lifetime (4.9/5 stars with 6.2k ratings) - ClearSpace: $7/mo, $45/yr, (n/a?)/lifetime (4.7/5 stars with 404 ratings) In the thread you've addressed some current features differences already (progress / streaks tracking, and pulling one out of an app after a set time limit). Are there specific things you want to do differently in the future than what those apps do today? [They appear to be going in two very different directions.] [1]: https://www.opal.so/ https://www.opal.so/ [2]: https://one-sec.app/ https://one-sec.app/

Another one to add to the list is Focus Bear: $5/month for cross device distraction blocking (desktop and mobile) and it also has habit stacking features. We've been building it for the last 12 months and it works pretty well.

Definitely. Generally, we're moving towards being 1. more flexible: if you want to change the type of friction for unlocking your apps we can enable that. instead of a 15 second breath to unlock app, you could activate "walk 100 steps to unlock" (as measured by healthkit). or "leave your house in the morning to unlock" (as measured by your location.) 2. cross-platform: compulsive tech usage follows us many of us to our laptops. we're building consistent experiences cross-platform for those who want it. (our chrome extension is the first example of this) 3. more robust: right now we're providing a moderating force that's ultimately avoidable if you're motivated enough to delete the app. we're building to allow users to opt-in to systems they literally can't get around, should they want this level of restriction. (clearspace "teammates" are the first example of this)

How does one-sec compare in your mind? That price point seems more reasonable, based on what the app does.
