# ActionDash review (2026): is it worth it? > Android screen-time tracker with app limits and a focus mode Checked Nov 13, 2026 ยท graded Nov 13, 2026 by ToolGPA. ActionDash is an Android app that shows how much time goes to each app, how many notifications arrive and how often the phone is unlocked. It adds daily app limits, a focus mode that pauses chosen apps, and a Gmail inbox cleanup tool. The Play Store listing names Sensor Tower as its builder. - **Category:** Focus Apps - **Made by:** Sensor Tower - **Website:** https://actiondash.com - **Runs on:** Android - **Who should skip it:** Skip it if you use iPhone or a computer, because it is Android only. - **Facts last checked:** Nov 13, 2026 ## Pricing ActionDash's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site. ## Key features - **Screen time breakdown:** Shows usage per app, notification counts and unlock frequency, with trends over days, weeks and months. - **Focus mode:** Pauses distracting apps in one tap, and can switch on by schedule for work, study or bedtime. - **App usage limits:** Sets a daily time limit for any app and notifies you as you approach it. - **Sleep mode:** Schedules a sleep window that disables apps, according to the Play listing. - **Inbox cleanup:** Connects to Gmail to show top senders, unsubscribe from newsletters and bulk-delete old mail. ## Good for - Android users who want more detail than the built-in Digital Wellbeing screen - People who want to exclude apps like clocks or maps from their screen-time totals ## Worth knowing - Android only; the vendor lists no iPhone or desktop version. - No pricing page exists, and the Play listing does not show a price for the in-app items, so the cost of any paid tier is unconfirmed. - Website blocking relies on Android's Accessibility Service, as the Play listing explains. - The email manager sends Gmail data to the vendor's servers, which the site says are encrypted. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.6 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. ActionDash is a free Android screen-time tracker with app limits, a focus mode and sleep mode. It is Android only, whether it has paid upgrades could not be confirmed, and its website-blocking needs Accessibility Service. - **Value for money: A.** Free to install from Google Play, which counts as free and substantial, but the site gives no pricing page and in-app prices are unconfirmed. - **Free plan and trial: B.** The app is free to install and use, though the listing does not say what paid in-app upgrades hold. - **Features: C.** Screen time breakdown, app limits, focus mode, sleep mode and inbox cleanup. It covers Android only and no website blocking without Accessibility Service. - **Ease of use: B.** No rating on record, but it is an app you install and open with nothing to set up. - **Platforms and integrations: D.** Android only, with no iPhone or desktop version.

Something home-made would be a web page. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool.
