minded: Mindful Screen Time

Some apps you open on purpose. Some just happen. minded catches the second kind.

When you reach for an app you have said you want to use less - social media, short videos, the news feed you check on reflex - minded opens a short prompt first: a question, a reflection, a positive alternative. Nothing is blocked. You can always continue. But the automatic reach becomes a decision, and that is usually enough.

Your answers build a private dashboard - your own insights, reflections, and helpful phrases, handed back to you over time. It is a place worth returning to, not an analytics report about how bad your week was.

How it works:

- Pick the apps that eat your screen time and that you want to be deliberate about.

- minded opens a prompt when you launch one of them.

- Answer, or skip and continue. No lockouts, no streak to lose, no shame.

- Your answers collect into a dashboard only you can see.

Built to stay out of your data:

- No data collection. No analytics. No tracking.

- No account, no subscription, no cloud sync. Everything stays on the device.

- Accessibility permission is used only to detect when to show the overlay. Nothing is stored or sent.

- Open source under the MIT license, so all of that is checkable, not just promised.

Also available as a Chrome extension, for the websites that get you the same way your phone does.

From the maker of Super Productivity, the open-source task manager with 22,000+ GitHub stars.

Years of daily use went into this app before it was opened up. It is small on purpose.
