Friends limit your Screen Time

Features & Capabilities

UseLess is a social approach to screen-time control. Your friends become accountability partners who help you stay within limits. Set daily limits for apps you overuse; when you hit the limit, the block activates and there is no snooze button. If you want more time, record a brief explanation and let your friends vote to approve or deny. The Walk of Shame publicizes requests, weekly leaderboards motivate discipline, and group challenges help you improve together.

Privacy-first: UseLess uses Apple's Screen Time API, and your app usage data stays on-device. Only your embarrassing requests are shared with your chosen friends. A subscription is required for full features, with a free trial available; inviting friends can unlock more access.

User Reviews

Reviews praise the concept of screen-time control but are dominated by complaints about paywalls, costly plans, bugs, and onboarding delays. Some call the idea a genius or good concept, but repeated issues like crashes, blank screens, failed notifications, ads, and lengthy setup lead to overall dissatisfaction.

Pros

Strong concept for screen-time control, repeatedly described as a genius or good idea.
Positive sentiment about the app's purpose and initiative to help manage screen time.

Cons

Paywall and subscription costs, including expensive plans and paid features, with users feeling they wasted money.
Widespread bugs and instability (crashes, blank screens, failed requests/notifications).
Onboarding is long and gating: lengthy setup before access to features and a paywall.
Ads and time wasted while using the app.

I don’t like it how you have to pay to cut your screen time there must be better ways .edit: worth it it works very well and I hate it because it always works

Supposedly released “Beast Mode” so you can no longer edit your screen time at any time but you can still activate and deactivate Beast Mode whenever you feel like which in turn means you can edit your screen time whenever you want without your friends knowing which renders this app completely useless( no pun intended). Who is making these decisions??? Please fix this! I bought the one year subscription for me and my daughter and feel like I wasted my money!

This app doesn’t work, it also didn’t send the request to my friend because they didn’t get a notification so they texted me that they didn’t get a notification when I told them so that was really disappointing. I was really excited to use this app and it did not go well. I really hope this helps.
