Clearspace

it's a very good app I can manage me time with this app.

good for focus and future development

it tells me to pay 4 grand rupee and im only 12 dis is a scam

This app works okay on my phone, but when I tried to also use it on my computer (Mac) it doesn't function properly. I have attempted to contact the company multiple times for a refund for this, but they seem to not exist and have never responded. I would NOT recommend this app.

I had 2 issues which led me to uninstall. I really wanted to use the push-ups to earn minutes feature. The problem is I was sick and can't do push-ups again yet. I could do 4 leg lifts (when you're on your back and lift both legs to exercise abdominal muscles), or squats, or burpees minus push-ups I just can't do push-ups yet. so sadly I had to uninstall. also when opening the clearspace app it would open Facebook when I wasn't even wanting to, ironically leading to more FB usage

it only gives 1 app to restrict for free then they charge u for a subscription, pathetic ! deserves a negative review if possible (for devs at least make them 3 or 5 apps for free not a measly one app)

good one 👍

I have been using the app for a week, nothing complicated for now but so far it helped a lot and did what ai needed without any fuss (still on free version)

there is a paywall and you can only use 1 app for free. personally I didn't like the app.

this is genuinely the best app EVERRR to break social media addiction 😭😭😭😭 got through mine so fast, all i did was reduce the sessions i used daily and voila! i just wish the free version had at least two slots for restriction 😞 the only issue actually

not for me but good

user-friendly

good but proof checker is problematic. when I was trying to do the pushups for the challenge, I accidentally tallied 9 pushups from the camera movement, then the second time it didn't track it properly and I tallied none

it really limits the screen time and it makes it harder to doom scroll

You can't use it unless you log in with Google. cannot even open the app before logging in with Google

very good but needs to be able to let you block more than 1 app on the free tier

very good website helps me scroll less

works great to limit my time on social media. I wish the free version would let me put limits on more than one app.

What a godsend. Limit to 1 app for free version, but even that has helped me tackle compulsive scrolling so well. I love the quotes after it catches you

pretty good, better then opal and underated

great app!

Its a good app blocker and when I try to open an app like TikTok, it makes me think if I should continue to open it or not, this makes me in the present where I escape to a trap loop

pay farm

It's so helpful to stop me from overusing apps I waste time on

actually good, doesn't require a subscription to basically be useable, very good at getting you off the app and giving you time to think more clearly about whether you really want to be doing that. absolutely would reccomend, also while using other apps for time limits for example or scheduled limits if this isn't cutting it for you, personally I like using multiple for all of that, but definitely doing great on its own.

didn't work

Great experience!! out of all the apps I have tried this one was the one that worked.

nah bro, why you faking after pushscroll, thats not nice

app doesn't look like description at ALL! It looks like a cheap 2010 android app 😔 SOOO disappointing

it's good at its job of being annoying

helped me with my doomscrolling

i downloaded it as a troll at first. didn't expect it to actually work and make me more active😭

the apps. helps me feel empowered l, grounded and in control. highly recommend it.

rlly good

It helps me be more considerate about the time I spend scrolling. My husband and friends also use it now

Its a great app. Puts a lot of friction between me and my Apps.

need mone to use

helps me double checking my thought and negative spiral

aplikacja nie działa, pisałam do suportu ale nie uzyskałam pomocy

Should have read reviews before subscribing. Was advertised not only push ups, but other exercises as well. You can see even screenshot of challenges in Google play description. Thought that trial free version has only push ups, but will unlock the rest when it is subscribed. Guess what? no, just false advertisement and I have paid for full year (no monthly option). Feels like a scam

Useful and user-friendly app. Helps me to short screen time immediately. Strongly recommend.

It actually cut my screen time by a lot, the quotes I get when trying to open a app encourages me to get to my homework or useful stuff

Unfortunately this app feels half-baked and like an afterthought. The design is student-level at best, but the subscription is most definitely not. Lacking a monthly option, you have 7 days to try and decide if you want to pay for a full year, but you really don't know what's free vs not. The biggest deal breaker for me is the lack of squats as an option to unlock/challenge. That's what was advertised and the main reason I got it, since I can't do push-ups.

it greatly helped me get more of a hold on my life.

It works. It makes you stop and think long enough to make better decisions. And the quotes are very inspiring.

haven't doomscrolled in literally months because of clearspace. 10/10

The free version only allows to block one app, which is enough for me as my biggest problem is ig. It has helped me SO much. you can set how many times a day you'd like to use an app. It has a screen for you to breathe in and out for a time you set before opening the app you block which has helped to stop compulsively checking it. I am much more intentional with my use of ig and more present in my daily life

juda jaqsi Intizomga uyretedi

it has helped me a lot by reducing an enormous part of my screentime and I became far more productive than before. I highly recommend it

🤬

I genuinely like this app but only one app for free like atleast would help a lot

I would give it a higher review but you can only block one app at a time before having to pay 7 pounds or dollars a month so I can block instagram to stop me doomscroling but then I can just go to YouTube shorts or facebook or Snapchat it's an overall good ap but the pay wall is a deal breaker

it works

It's amazing for me. I used apps on impulse without a thought, now I gat a moment to reflect and think before wasting my time, which has helped me so much.

it's really helped

написано что якобы удаляет твой аккаунт, но подписку все равно оставляет, ушлый разработчик, а сам функционал посредственность не достойная оплаты

this app is great but there should be an option to reduce minutes and add minutes because sometimes it adds more minutes and sometimes does not please fix this one overall the app is great if there could be one more app option then it would be very good thank you.

is a great app I used and it actually helps more than any other, but it doesn't work if you try to add 2 apps even if you have the premium version I try to use it for chrome and YouTube and as soon as I add the second it stops working i'd like to add that I'm on an Android, if you guys solve this issue you'll be the best app ever ily

great app but give challenges in oder to not break a streaks like do 50 push ups or like do 100 squats

amazing app, really helps you get off your phone and stops you from unconscious opening addicting apps.

Enough friction that I find myself not even trying to open the app. Super good

Great app all around, it has really helped me with my YouTube addicition. However, I would love if the free version let you block more than 1 app, even just having 1 or 2 more options of apps to block would be really helpful.

Trust Me, Its Useful

best thing I have done for myself! couldn't quite commit to a lite phone, and think that this is the next best thing.

No Pushup feature

great exept for the fact that you can only block one app unless you wana pay

Just wish it let you add more apps for free at least 2 instead of just one but it's good

Glad this app is free

it works!

The only app that has actually helped me feel in control of my screen time. The option for number of sessions and session length helps me not waste all my daily allotment in one go while still letting me rot once in a while.

you have to log into your Google account before you can see anything in the app? trying screenzen instead

hi I want to say, the app was extremely great but it's not that strict...

I love this app sm it has helped me reduce my screentime from 7 hours to 3 hours trust me and get this damn app to avoid doomscrolling

instantly reduced screen time

It very much gives me pause before going into distraction. It's overall helping me be more present.

I had tried everything, from deleting apps, self timers and so on. This app is helping me decompress and let go of the urge of checking up on apps that are highly addictive. I know they have a push up challenge going, but would also be cool if started trying out different exercises and experiences. Maybe squats? Read x amount of pages? Write for x amount of minutes to also include different interests. That'd be cool!

This was so useful. I've cut down my time on Instagram significantly.

it's an amazing app, works better than any other app in this specific categorie

This app really makes you ponder and think. love this app and will be getting a subscription

this has really reduced my social media anxiety. it's helped me break my doomscrolling and I find I've got less interest in apps that I rarely take my whole window anyway.

This is overall a very good app, I only use it for Instagram, which is the app I use the most. I was trying to cut my screen time and limit it but I found myself letting go every time. But not until I found this app! The inspirational lines and the "deep breaths" let me rethink my choices and I stopped scrolling. The significance of clearance is amazing!

I love that it makes me think twice before wasting time on an app!

Can only do 1 app for free

I just wanted to be the first to review

It does exactly what you'd expect. It adds a buffer screen between when you open the selected app and when you use it, in which you can take a moment to decide if it's worth your time. Using this, I've cut my scrolling down to >45mins/day, and I've realised just how addictive short-form content is. 9/10, actively DO recommend.

At least make it have 3 free apps, good concept, but wasn't implemented easily.

Update: The "pushups to unlock" feature works great and makes the app much more useful. Smooth, easy to use, and definitely worth it now. Original: I downloaded Clearspace specifically for the “pushups to unlock” feature that’s been promoted all over the internet. Turns out that’s iOS only, with no mention in the Android app, no instructions, and zero communication from the developers about when (or if) it’s coming. I wasted my money on yet another useless subscription 😑

the pushup challenge needs to be fixed it keeps counting when the camera aint looking at anything and one time it said i got 10 then i clicked save and it banked 30 its ok but very buggy and u can also go negative in minutes if u put how many minutes u wanna watch passed how many min u have

It's the best app I have ever used

Shame about only one app available for free but otherwise a decent app which keeps you on task. However (I recognise that this is in beta mode) but the challenge mode won't register pushups. Furthernore, it offers you free time as it registers an automatic pushup which makes it easier to take advantage and carry on scrolling.

would not recommend. got this app after seeing an ad for it on Instagram but quickly discovered that it was nothing like the ad claimed. overall 2-5 stars

Cool idea but why do we have to pay that's just doing too much now.

the pushup count algo is bad.. the algo just randomly starts counting pushups without doing pushups.. also in the free tier only one app can be restricted

SCAM! Developer commented on my review that pushups had rolled out. I redownload, get tricked into paying the yearly subscription, and guess what? NO PUSHUP OPTIONS. Developer commented again that that it's in the "challenges" tab. You know well that's not what everyone has been asking for for years. Old review: Still no squat/push up to unlock. Yet charges Androids the same amount for less features. Only breathing exercises which is not much of a deterrent vs squats in public.

No love for the android users? :'( the android version looks unfinished compared to the iOS one.

its a shame the app is good but it has a really annoying bug where i tried to open one of the controlled apps and after waiting and confirming that i indeed want to use it opens the other app that i have under control, ruining the experience. i really wanted it to work but this made me cancel my subscription

great initiative but the plan is too expensive

Love the idea. Hate the pricing. One unlocked app for free is fine. I'd be ok with onetime payment(s) but a subscription? If I had to guess based on the camera feed the algorithm runs locally. Yes there may have been upfront costs. Do small payments per added app or maybe bundles "add 3 more apps". Detection is cheatable by rotation camera.

Very cool app, mb work litle bit on push up detector, but app is 10/10

i can't sign up

i thingk the app is good but im not paying over 50$ for 12 moth subskription.

took you long enough to give pushup to unlock. I don't like subscriptions, I would rather pay twice or thrice the amount for a lifetime purchase.

Registration with Google is the only option, no email or similar alternatives. Was looking forward to trying this app based on the Huberman Lab podcast.

this is the only app that doesn't make me feel lazy when doom scrolling. me chest is already sore and I love it. hopefully they add things like sit up or squats, then I will be jacked just from wanting to watch Instagram.

Its really cool, a lil pricy but I would really love if you could update the app with improving the exersices, if I could choose from different exersices. thanks tho, atleast I'm getting arm muscels now lol

Instantly helped me reduce time on social media. Just that simple pause is enough most times to get me to stop and realize I'm opening it out of habit

used for a few days. reminds me i dont need to open apps as frequently

A helpful app to reduce addiction to all these apps. The free version allows you to control only one app

This is an excellent app... it's definitely helpful to make more mindful choices, curb app usage, and I love the quotes. I personally think the price point is a little much for how simple it is but I appreciate the design and thoughtfulness behind it.

I love this app. It's helped me lower my screen time by half in just a few weeks. The only thing I would like for this app to have is some way of enforcing going over your usage time, because it kind of just encourages you to close the app instead of locking you out which is what I would prefer. But other than that, it's a great app.

Clearspace has helped me to be more conscious about my phone use. I see a limit I set for myself in a day, and I keep that in mind everytime I open certain apps. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to be more aware and have more control over their screen time.

I installed this app because I saw an ad that claimed it let you "earn" screentime by doing squats and exercise. But.... nope! This feature exists nowhere in the app as far as I can see. It's like one of those game ads where you install the game and it's completely different from the app. bummer.

discouraged me from opening apps, exactly what I needed it to do! it's helped a great amount and was easy to set up.

So far, I like how the app works. I'm watching Facebook reels way less, and my phone use has been way more intentional.

The Clearspace app has assisted me in reducing my time on social media and being more conscious of using my time. The trial version just gets me to breathe in and out while waiting before using whatever app I am monitoring. I was looking forward to choosing options like press ups before getting access to social media, like advertised, but that is not available. Due to the high price of the app, I will likely not continue with its use.

Horrible on-boarding experience. Asks for your name, email & profile pic, then some marketing/demographics info, then asks for usage & overlay permissions & then dumps you on to the 7 day free trial / $75 subscription page. The data & permission grabbing workflow was well designed but I still don't really know how this app works or how it's going to help me. A quick product demo/walkthrough first would be nice. There is a free option for one app. They should also use smartlinks in their ads.

I don't hate how it is now, but would love to see all the features that iOS has. probably won't use much until then.

has increased my productivity by many fold and greatly curbed my phone addiction. I tell everyone I know with similar goals about this app

Would be great as a free app, but as a subscription there aren't nearly enough features to make it worth the money

extremely helpful and non-stressful. simple yet effective. I recommend it to people who just need a little help with managing screen time. it's not so restrictive, so you don't feel the need to delete it.

So far, I am really happy I gave this app a try. It has reduced my doom scrolling to a minimum. I usually spend up to 2 hours of my day (or more) on Instagram, and now it's down to 10 minutes to 20 minutes a day, maximum. This immediate change in habits has also convinced me to pay for the subscription. I was, however, disappointed that the Android version only offers a breathing exercise and not the same as its iOS version (such as push-ups or squats). I do hope this gets added in the future.

really helpful reminder to be more mindful. shocked by the amount of times it has activated and kept me from logging into social media

Downloaded this two days ago and have read more in that time than I have in the past two weeks. I also have ADHD which means I can lose track of time very easily, and the option to set an amount of time for each session helps me understand how much time I was using on social media before. Highly recommend.

Only has a yearly subscription after a 7 day trial? It takes around 20 days on average to form a habit, so how am I supposed to know if it's working within a single week? I'm not going to spend $45 for a year subscription of something that may not even work for me.

The push-up challenge software is incompatible with Android. It only allows Apple users.

Yearly subscription only??? At least offer a monthly option... If I stop using it (or figure out a convenient way around it) in 6 months or decide after a month it doesn't work the way I need it to, I dont want to pay for a full year. Feels almost predatory. Like a money grab for software that will be abandoned. At least you'll get paid more early on instead of having incentive to continue improving it that a monthly subscription would provide.

Really does help. especially if you have a strong addiction that you just open apps without even thinking

very good app for controlling your extra use on social media. i really find helpful, but for free user it only give one app to restrict.

helps me with stopping compulsive scrolling and opening apps. definitely recommend it for fellow college students!

pretty cool - I had noticeably lesser Instagram usage immediately after downloading the app

Works wonders even with the limited features. Reduced my social media time from hours a day to minutes a day so works as advertised there. However I was hoping to see a push-up unlock feature as advertised online but that apparently is iPhone only at the moment. Still, the forced time limits and breaths are helpful if you mindlessly scroll and want to do something better with your time.

This app has enabled me to take control of my social media habits! The quotes and the breathe screen help me to be mindful and engender a positive perspective. Overall, this app has allowed me to overcome doom scrolling, impulsive social media use, and dompamine mining. This has made all the difference in my mental health!

it works!! customisable and simple app.

I've been trying to fix my SM addiction for years and this is the only thing that helps/feels like it'll be permanent.

Very good to cut back on using social media. The support is very helpful

I appreciate this app being made so I can still use an app knowing that it will not take over. thanks for making a free version where you can choose just 1 app 👍

you wouldn't imagine how effective this is... I'm missing features like turning off the restriction temporarily if I for example watch a recipe on tiktok, and I wouldn't want that to count

I paid for this app and it doesn't have the features it advertised. There is no workout challenges. The only feature I have is taking deep breathes I have no other feature I saw in the advertisement. I had high hopes for this app and it left me very disappointed especially because I paid for it.

really great app,saved me countless hours of my life.One small bummer is that somethimes it resets your streak to zero even if you didn t open it past the limit

l love thia app, it's beneficial for reeling in my wasted time. i went from 2 hours to 30 minutes a day!

App works well and does what it says. Sometimes it takes a while to boot up when using a selected app, allowing me to get fully into the app before it interrupts it. I'd also like to see a feature where pressing the back button during the countdown closes the selected app instead of taking you back into it, only to restart the countdown.

Amazing app, only downside is that you can only add one app while most people have more than one addicting app. But what can they do, they need to make the money somehow. Get this app. Itll change your life.

its great for 1 app, which its free, you create a limit of times you can open a specific app, and a limit of how much that app can be opened. for example I used it on YouTube, 3 sessions a day, and 10 max per session, after the third one you can still open the app, but you will have a warning saying it will break your streak. you can change how many sessions and the mex length of a session anytime without breaking your streak.

Helped to stop needless scrolling and increased my attention span. amazing app

I saw results within a week. I will open youtube sometimes, then clearspace pops up then I close it. 10 stars.

Cuts back on my youtube addiction. It's great! Would be cool to introduce some sort of free way to unlock more apps to add screen time, maybe some sort of streak dedication system?

I've tried a bunch of approaches to limiting app time, and think the breathing exercise here is the best. Other approaches penalize the user (blocks which can be easily disabled, tapping random squares which make you feel like an addict) - whereas a deep breath then a snippet of wisdom is actually beneficial, and more often than not I decide not to open the app afterwards anyway. Recommended.

This app was advertised on social media as having a feature that would require pushups to access apps. This feature does not appear to actually exist. I followed the exact steps as shown in the video on TikTok and it does not appear as an option. And with no trial that means I paid money to discover this app is not as advertised.

Amazing for your screen time!! Best app yet at reducing usage. Highly recommend to everyone looking to reduce screentime on certain apps.
