ScreenCap makes you do something about it.

Set a daily time budget for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit — any app you want. When the clock runs out, ScreenCap locks you out. Hard. No sneaky bypass. No infinite snooze. Just a PIN-gated wall between you and another hour of reels.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

Most screen time apps show you numbers after the fact. ScreenCap enforces limits before the damage is done. The hard lockout overlay is real and deliberate — you set a PIN when you create a budget, and that same PIN is the only way back in (with a 15-minute penalty). It's accountability you actually feel.

KEY FEATURES

• Per-App Time Budgets — Set individual daily limits for any app by name or package ID, from 15 minutes to several hours

• Hard Lockout Enforcement — When your time runs out, a full-screen lockout overlay blocks the app until the next day's reset

• PIN-Gated Bypass — Override a lockout only with your pre-set PIN, adding a 15-minute penalty each time to discourage abuse

• Aggregate Screen Time Dashboard — See your total daily usage vs. your combined budget cap at a glance, plus per-app breakdown cards

• Popular App Templates — Quick-start chips for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, Slack, Discord, Netflix, and more — tap once to pre-fill app details

• Category Tags — Organize budgets by Social, Entertainment, Productivity, Games, or Utilities to see where your time really goes

• Sandbox Simulation Mode — Preview exactly what the lockout experience feels like for any app before committing, with a live countdown and mock content feed

• Reset Countdown — Locked out early? The overlay shows exactly when your budget resets so you know how long to wait

• Daily Budget Slider — Set allowances from 15 minutes to 4 hours with quick-pick presets (15m / 30m / 1 Hr / 2 Hr) for fast setup

• Visual Usage Indicators — Color-coded progress bars show each app's burn rate at a glance — green, amber, red as you approach the limit

• Cyber-Dark Design — Deep navy UI with neon cyan and teal accents built for low-light use

HOW IT WORKS

Open ScreenCap and tap the "+" button to add your first app budget. Choose from popular app templates or enter any app name and package ID manually. Set a daily time allowance using the slider or quick-pick buttons, assign a category, and confirm. Your budget is now live.

The main dashboard shows your aggregate screen time and all active budgets in one view. Each card displays real-time usage against your set limit. When an app hits its budget, the lockout overlay activates. Enter your PIN to get 15 more minutes — or close the mock application and do something else.

Use Sandbox Simulation Mode to test the lockout experience for any app before you commit. It runs a realistic countdown against a mock feed so you know exactly what enforcement feels like.

PERFECT FOR

• Heavy social media users who want structured limits without relying on willpower alone

• Parents setting boundaries for their own device usage to model healthy screen habits

• Students and remote workers who need focused deep-work blocks free from entertainment apps

• Anyone who has tried "just one more scroll" and ended up 90 minutes later wondering where the evening went

• Productivity enthusiasts who track time and want enforcement to match their intentions

PRIVACY & TRUST

ScreenCap runs entirely on your device. No account required. No usage data is uploaded to any server. No analytics, no ads, no third-party tracking. Your app budgets, PIN, and usage history stay local and private. The app uses Android's UsageStatsManager API to read on-device screen time data — it never transmits this information anywhere. ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES` - `com.screencapblocker.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [SocialsCap](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.socialscap.app) — 46 users - [Screen Time Machine: Blocker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.screentimemachine.app) — 68 users - [Lock On - Limit Screen Time](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.lockon.focus) — 131 users - [ShutApp - App Time Limit](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.odom.applimit) — 80 users - [App Limit Monitor–Screen Time](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.applimit.monitor) — 250 users - [Kids Screen Time Lock & Timer](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kaizenapps.timer) — 475 users - [ScreenTimer](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.k2026.screentimer) — 48 users - [ScreenTime - Parent Control](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fruitranger.screentimepro) — 128 users - [ScreenTally - Screen Time App](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.screentimetracker.app) — 4,997 users - [SetLimit - Screen Time Manager](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.setlimit.app) — 127 users - [Applimits: App Blocker & Focus](https://chrome-stats.com/d/butterfalcon.applimit) — 537 users - [Screeny: Screen Time Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/screentime.tracker.app.usage.phone.blocker) — 83 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.screencapblocker)
