About this app
Jeda (Indonesian for "pause") helps you reduce screen time and move from impulsive to intentional app use, at a pace you choose. If app blockers and screen time limit apps have felt too harsh, Jeda is a calmer way, built for focus and digital wellbeing.
Jeda is named after a familiar excuse: "just a 5-minute break" that turns into an hour. Instead of taking that break away, Jeda puts a short, gentle pause in front of the apps you choose. Your break stays. It just gets an end.
HOW IT WORKS
• Choose your impulse apps. Pick the few you open without thinking — social, video, news, whatever pulls you in.
• Set your schedules. Tell Jeda which days and hours to walk with you — one for work, another for weekends, each with its own apps. The rest of the time, it stays completely quiet.
• Get a calm daily budget. Jeda turns your real usage into a relaxed daily time pool, split into short sessions with a little recovery space between them. Between sessions, and once the day's budget is spent, your impulse apps rest behind a calm pause.
• Ease down, gently. Each week Jeda recalculates your budget from how you actually used your phone, moving only at the pace you choose — and never below a 30-minute maintenance level.
BUILT FOR YOUR CALM SELF, NOT YOUR CRAVING SELF
The decision to cut back belongs to you when you're calm, not to you when you're craving. So the friction is asymmetric. Making your plan stricter takes effect right away. Loosening it — disabling a schedule, shrinking a window, removing an app — waits until tomorrow. Future-you stays protected from a moment of impulse, without ever feeling trapped.
And when you genuinely need a break, you can take the day off — a small, bounded number of times each month. No guilt, no fighting the app.
IN YOUR OWN WORDS
Write up to three short notes to yourself while you're calm — "I want to be asleep earlier", "Time for my kids". Each time Jeda pauses, one of them is there, in your words, to remind you why you wanted this.
SEE YOUR JOURNEY
The Jeda trail is a calm record of your days: how your usage sits against your budget, week after week. You open it when you choose. No score, no red.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your usage history is yours. Jeda reads the usage of the apps you select to suggest a baseline and adjust your budget week by week, and never keeps any other app's usage. Your daily history stays on your phone, only for you, and you can delete it any time. Jeda never sends your usage anywhere. Reflection check-ins stay on your device.
Changing phones? Export a backup file and restore it on the new phone — no account, no cloud. The file is yours; Jeda never reads it later or sends it anywhere.
WHAT JEDA IS NOT
• Not on all day. Outside the hours you choose, Jeda does nothing.
• Not a surveillance tool. Your history stays on your phone, never a log of every tap.
• Not a scoreboard. Your journey is there when you want it, never as a number to chase.
• Not a guilt machine. The tone stays calm, on purpose.
EARLY ACCESS
Jeda is in early access — everything is unlocked and free. Jeda Plus will arrive later to fund development, and Jeda Basic will always stay free and fully usable.
PERMISSIONS
Jeda asks for a capability only when a feature needs it, and explains each one in the app:
• Usage Access (optional) — reads your selected apps' usage to suggest a baseline, adjust your budget and keep your on-device daily history.
• Display over other apps — shows the calm pause screen over a selected app.
• Notifications & alarms — keep protection running and on time during your schedule.
Jeda does not use Accessibility services.
Whether you want to reduce screen time, build focus, do a digital detox, or simply stop doomscrolling, Jeda helps you ease off the apps that pull you in, a little each week.
Pause with intention. Open your apps on purpose.

What’s new
• Back from Home now closes Jeda. If your schedule starts before Jeda is on, a gentle reminder appears, at most once a day
• A schedule you've turned off no longer keeps Jeda from starting at your next schedule, and the editor now checks your changes against tomorrow's schedules too
• Turning on a schedule that overlaps another now opens it for editing, so you can give it different times
Still early access — everything unlocked and free.
