Review summary

Users largely praise OffScreen for raising awareness of screen time and providing helpful focus reminders, but face recurring problems with data accuracy, stability, and billing. The most mentioned issues include inaccurate tracking data, glitches and app crashes, and subscription/cross-device purchase problems. A subset of reviewers feel the app is abandoned due to lack of updates, while others appreciate the productivity and mindfulness benefits when it works.
Pros
  • Increases awareness of screen time and mindful usage.
  • Focus reminders and limits help with productivity when the app works.
  • Positive user sentiment when it functions (users express gratitude and find it helpful).
Cons
  • Screen time data is frequently inaccurate or inconsistent, with times jumping or resetting.
  • The app can be unstable or stop working, and some reviews say it hasn't been updated for a long time.
  • Billing and subscription issues: difficulty canceling, trouble restoring purchases across devices, and perceived heavy premium gating.
  • Free version offers limited functionality and core features rely on paying for pro.
  • Some users report data loss or the app requiring constant opening to track usage.

I love the environment but there's a HUGE problem. (I don't know if the problem is with my phone or the app) It shows my screen time WRONG. In the very beggining of the day everything is right. But suddenly it jumps! like, I used my phone for 15 minutes, and it shows it right and the next time I pick my phone up it shows 3 hours or else. :(

app's broken. Time tracked data keeps glitching, like it'd go to 20s and glitch, back to 10s and the cycle repeats. All permissions given, already tried uninstalling & reinstalling. What a shame

Love this. however I'm so addicted to my phone that sometimes it doesn't work to peer pressure me and to stop using my phone.

I found out about this app and immediately thought it would be of good use for productivity. I paid the $2+ for the pro version and it was great until the time warning or pick up pop ups were driving me nuts. so I altered everything. my biggest gripe is the payment. I purchased it and nowhere on the app is there an option to cancel the subscription. there is a 'payment policy' button you can not tap on or doesn't work. I had to reach out to the feedback email b/c there are no other options.
