User Reviews

Users praise Limit for being free, ad-free, and easy to set up, with strong results in reducing social-media time and improving focus. The app’s friction-based design that locks distractions by default is highly valued. Common requests include more granular per-app limits and a visible live countdown timer on Dynamic Island/lock screen. Some feedback notes setup quirks or minor bugs, but overall sentiment is positive and users report meaningful improvements in digital habits.
Pros
  • Free to use with no ads or subscriptions.

  • Locks distractions by default, adding friction to reduce impulsive use.

Cons

I love the concept, it's exactly what I have been looking for. Unfortunately it's too easy to just keep giving yourself more time. Can we have a strict mode?

I have long been a paid subscriber to Freedom, also by this creator. Freedom blocks apps during certain times of day but you only can break your rules once a week or something like that. With this app, Limit, you can get around your limits immediately and it seems, an unlimited number of times. I just tried giving myself half an hour, and then changing it to an hour, and then changing it to two hours, and there was no friction. Unless I missing something, Limit is no different from Screen Time, which is already built into every iPhone. If this gets changed to be more like Freedom, it will be a great app.
