About this app

Take control of your digital life with AppDose.

AppDose helps you build healthier digital habits by showing you exactly how much time you spend on your apps while you use them. Unlike standard screen time checkers that bury your data in settings, AppDose displays a minimal, customizable timer overlay right on your screen, keeping you aware and focused in real-time.

Whether you want to reduce doom-scrolling, boost productivity, or simply become more mindful of your usage, AppDose gives you the gentle nudge you need.

Core features are 100% free. Upgrade only for unlimited apps and advanced styling

Session Time: See how long you've been using the app right now.
Daily Total: See your cumulative usage for the entire day.

Powerful Customization: Make the overlay look exactly how you want. AppDose offers deep customisation options to blend seamlessly with your phone's aesthetic:
