OffScreen – Less Screen Time: A Review
OffScreen is a free iPhone app developed by Hangzhou Midi Technology Co. Ltd. that helps users track their phone usage and stay focused. With OffScreen, users can set up their screen time goals and receive daily insights on their screen time activities such as pickups, average usage, stationary life, and sleep time. The app also allows users to disable social apps during their OFF time and supports three focus modes: Pomodoro, countdown, and time accumulation.
One of the best features of OffScreen is its ability to visualize and share data. Users can view their data in week/month/year view and share it with others using the well-designed share card. The app also includes breaking digital detox challenges such as screen time, pick up, and sleep challenges. Additionally, it syncs sleep time and focus mindfulness time on Apple HealthKit.
However, it’s important to note that to collect walking time data, the app tracks users’ location in the background, which can affect battery life. Also, the app offers subscription payments that will be charged to the user’s iTunes account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions will automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off 24 hours prior to the end of the current subscription period.
Overall, OffScreen is a helpful app for those looking to reduce screen time and increase focus.
