Features & Capabilities

Inscreen is more than a screen time tracker. Inscreen helps you pause and reflect on your screen time at regular intervals throughout the day. Designed for simplicity and privacy, Inscreen has minimal features and a zero learning curve, helping you get started quickly.

⏵ HOW IS INSCREEN DIFFERENT?

Unlike other screen time apps that completely block access, Inscreen draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you recognize your screen time habits through regular prompts and inculcate healthier behaviours without restrictions.

⏵ WHY IT WORKS?

We tap into a few key psychological principles and behavioural patterns. Here’s why it works:

Awareness = Better Choices: Regular reminders to ask whether you're on your phone intentionally, encouraging healthier choices.
Guiding, not controlling: Instead of strict limits, scheduled subtle nudges to guide you toward mindful decisions, without the frustration of restrictions.
Accountability: Weekly progress, actionable insights and daily notifications leading to lasting behaviour changes.
Low barrier to entry: No drastic changes or restrictions, making it easy to integrate into daily life and gradually adjust over time.

⏵ FEATURES

Alerts to be intentional about your screen time.
Focus sessions to completely block distracting apps for a set routine, say, during work or winding down at night.
Strict daily limits to keep your screen time in control.
Notifications that help you track your daily activity.
Secure and private. All your data stays on your device.

⏵ HOW DOES THE SETUP WORK?

Choose the distracting apps or categories.
Set a daily limit.
Set up focus sessions (optional).

⏵ FINANCIAL AID

We’re on a mission to solve phone addiction and distraction. We’re determined to help everyone. Our Financial Aid program offers a free 1 year subscription to individuals who are financially stretched but are in need. The link to apply is in the app.

User Reviews

Time spent on different apps is completely inaccurate. The app has a built-in “excuse” for this. It constantly says the “screentime API’s are extremely unstable” and suggested that you force close the app and reopen it. Doing so doesn’t fix anything. Today it reported 8 minutes of time on YouTube when the actual time was more like 1.5 hours. Another app, InScreen, is able to track time 100% accurately somehow, in spite of the “unstable” API. The app blocking functionality is very good. If the time tracking was somewhat accurate the app would be awesome.

There’s no way to try the app before paying full price or starting a subscription. Sure, there’s a trial, but why would I start it if I have no idea what the app’s functionality even is?
