About this app

Turn screen time into a daily challenge.

Lucid helps you break automatic phone habits, build focus, and use distracting apps with intention. Instead of simply locking your phone away, Lucid gives you practical tools to pause, choose, and stay on track.

Every day becomes a small challenge:

• Set a daily screen time goal
• Build and protect your focus streak
• See your progress over time
• Face distracting moments with short focus challenges
• Make better choices without guilt or shame

HOW LUCID WORKS

When you open an app out of habit, Lucid adds a moment of friction before it opens. Depending on your rule, you may see:

• A calm pause
• A breathing exercise
• A timer
• An intention prompt
• A short focus challenge
• A stricter or escalating intervention

That brief interruption helps you notice what you are doing before an automatic tap turns into another endless session.

USE YOUR PHONE AS A TOOL

Many apps are useful. The problem is often the feed around the useful part.

You might open YouTube to check a subscription, Instagram to answer a message, or Reddit to look something up. On supported apps, Lucid can help you go directly to useful destinations with shortcuts and deep links — so you can do what you came for and skip the feed.

Lucid can help you:

• Reduce doomscrolling and automatic app opening
• Tame Shorts, Reels, and other bottomless feeds
• Open useful app destinations directly
• Add friction before distracting apps
• Set different rules for different apps and habits
• Choose when your rules are active
• Adjust friction from a gentle nudge to a more demanding challenge
• Set daily screen time budgets
• Track your goals, streaks, and daily progress
• Understand your habits with local statistics and insights

A DAILY CHALLENGE, NOT A PUNISHMENT

Lucid is designed to help you build a better relationship with your phone, not to make your phone unusable.

Some days will go well. Some days will be harder. The goal is to keep showing up, protect your progress, and make one more intentional choice than yesterday.

No guilt. No shame. Just a clearer way to use your phone.

ANDROID PERMISSIONS & ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE

Lucid uses Android's AccessibilityService API to detect when you open an app you selected and to identify short-video feeds (Shorts, Reels, TikTok). This core function lets Lucid apply your rules and display a focus barrier at the right moment.

Usage access is used to calculate time spent in apps, daily goals, and on-device statistics. The display over other apps permission lets Lucid show its barrier above selected apps.

Information obtained through the Accessibility Service and raw usage data are processed on your device and are not collected or shared by Lucid. Lucid does not record your screen or audio, change settings without your permission, or prevent you from disabling the service or uninstalling the app. You can disable these permissions at any time in Android Settings.
