Limits worth knowing in Digitox

  • Android only for now; the site offers an iOS waitlist.
  • The Play listing shows one in-app price but not what it unlocks, so the free tier's limits are unclear.
  • Needs Accessibility Service access, and the listing says anonymous usage metrics, including keywords seen, are collected and shared in aggregate for market research.
  • The content features are marked beta on the Play listing.
