SPACE helps you to set goals for your phone use, it monitors your behaviour and tracks progress, plus you can share your results with friends and family.

I’ve found the app helpful for helping me keep myself from being too distracted by my phone. It may not do anything to keep particular apps from distracting me, but it still tracks my progress and lets me know how much I’ve used my phone over the course of the week and over the course of however long I’ve used the app. When I first set it up, I answered a few questions about how often I use my phone and the app automatically provided a set of default options for the app, which I have the option to change later on if I decide to. I’m even able to set notifications for myself to remind me to get off my phone now and then. However, as useful as the app is, I’ve had some trouble checking my live daily progress on app’s home page. More specifically, I often have to close the app and quickly reopen it due to the counter not updating right away without doing so. I’ve also noticed a flaw with the unlock counter. Sometimes, when I close the app and click on the notification stating the app is closed while on the home screen and not the lock screen, the unlock counter thinks I’m unlocking my phone when I open the app again.

Hey there! Thanks for your feedback and sorry we've take a while to get back to you. The counter should update in realtime now - if you have the latest version. Check it out and let us know if it's working for you!

I'm a teenager who downloaded this app because I have to admit that I do have a bit of a problem with my screentime. It tracks your time on your phone and how many times you unlock your phone (which is good for you to know) the only things I have for suggestions are the following.1. I wish it gave me the little messages more often. (Sometimes it likes to point out, "Hey, ____, studies show that you are happier if you go outside more." Or my personal favorite, "How about you spend sometime in the real world?" They're a funny reminder to stop using my phone for a bit. But sometimes I give myself 5 minutes after the reminder to continue watching which leads to an hour.2. I also suggest that the app could maybe have a more in depth survey to figure out what kind of phone user I am. Because sometimes I use my phone for 2 different purposes all the time, and I might use my phone for drastically different amounts between days.I did have another suggestion but I forgot what it was. Overall, this is a great app if you're working on breaking a screen habit.

This app has been so helpful to get myself off my phone! I’ve gone from 5 hours a day to less than 3, I’m very happy with the app and much happier now that I’m on my phone less! Some cool ideas for this: be able to set the app to not count time on certain apps (like calculator for school, or Duolingo, etc), and also being able to customize the messages it sends you when you’re overusing you’re phone could be even more helpful.
Am I just using this wrong or is this a bug?

Great app! This is a good tool for monitoring your own phone usage and helping cut back. I wish the messages were customizable (the whole "Don't you want to be more productive in the real world?" is way too specific and actually does the opposite of helping me and I've had to turn those messages off completely even though having some sort of reminder pop up would probably help me more.)It hasn't been working great lately though. It completely stopped tracking my progress for a few days and then said I spent 26 hours on my phone in one day. Lately, it only sometimes tracks my usage. I've definitely been using my phone for most of the morning (a couple hours) and it says I've only been on for 10 minutes. I always have the app open in the background. Do I need to "check in" at the beginning of every day to tell it that it's a new day or something?
