What is Clearspace?

Clearspace is a screen time app for iPhone and Android that puts a short centering exercise in front of the apps you choose and asks how long you intend to stay before letting you in. It can also block apps on a schedule, set challenges such as pushups that earn scrolling time, and bring in accountability partners. A Chrome extension applies the same approach to websites.

Clearspace has a free plan. Paid plans start at $6.99 / month, or $44.99 / year (US App Store). See every plan

Good for

  • People who want friction before social apps rather than a hard block
  • Phone users who want a time budget for each scrolling session
  • Anyone motivated by accountability partners, streaks and exercise challenges

Worth knowing

  • Clearspace publishes no pricing page; the only prices found are in-app purchases on the app stores.
  • The US App Store lists three purchases named Clearspace Premium at $44.99, $49.99 and $59.99 without saying how they differ.
  • The iOS app is for iPhone only and there is no Mac or Windows app; on a computer Clearspace runs as a Chrome extension.
  • The Google Play listing leaves out the schedules and accountability partners that the iPhone listing describes.

Key features

Pause before opening
A selected app opens only after a short centering exercise such as a deep breath, which gives you a moment to decide whether to go in at all.
Session limits
You tell Clearspace how long you want to spend in an app, and it pulls you out when that time is up.
Blocking and schedules
Distracting apps can be blocked outright, and schedules set the windows when chosen apps may be used.
Screen time challenges
Screen time challenges are meant to train your attention, and exercise modes make you do pushups, squats or steps to earn scrolling time.
Accountability and reporting
On iPhone, trusted accountability partners help you keep to your goals, and streaks and budgets summarize your screen time.
Chrome extension
Blocks or limits websites with the same pause-before-opening step, hides social media feeds and offers a Reader Mode that strips a page down to its text.
