Review clearspace?

Reviewers say clearspace works best as a light-touch nudge against habitual social app use: brief pauses, prompts like doing a push-up, and simple friction help people rethink impulsive opens, cut doomscrolling, and feel more intentional and present. Several users say it reduced screen time quickly without feeling harsh or all-or-nothing. The main criticism is setup: one reviewer found onboarding confusing and buggy, citing phone number collection, unclear limits for free users, no app search, lost selections, and weak bug-reporting support.

Setup experience was very poor. Why do you need my phone number? Why do you let me select entire categories and then tell me i can't select categories when i submit the apps. Why let me select more than one app during setup (free user), but then tell me i can only select one, after i've selected multiple apps. Even if you wanted me to upgrade at this point, there's no way to do so without losing all my selections? Why not have a SEARCH feature for apps, instead of hunting around for them (and then having my work undone!) Seriously though, why do you need my phone number >:( Finally, i do have a bug to submit, with a screenshot, but i can only message you but cant upload the one thing that would be useful.

Clearspace made me realize how often I open apps out of pure habit. That tiny pause before launching something like Instagram or TikTok? Weirdly powerful. It’s not restrictive or judgmental — just gently helps you be more intentional. I’ve felt more present and less scattered since using it. Super simple idea, but it really works.

Clearspace has made an impact in how I use my phone from the minute I downloaded it. End the endless scrolling and be present! Love the light touch, ease of use (set it and forget it), and the UX is simple and elegant.
