CLUSTER TIME-COACH-SCREEN · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-06-04

AI screen time blockers

These apps combine screen time blocking with an AI coach that interacts with the user when they attempt to open a blocked app, often asking for justification or granting timed breaks. The entry history shows an initial pair in June 2025, followed by a gap, then a steady single entry per month from February to July 2026. On traction, all members show a signal score of 0 stars; the leaders are Argue: Screen Time App Blocker, Takeback: AI Screen Time Coach, and sensei.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
