Its site says it collects no accounts or personal information, and an iOS waitlist is open. - **Category:** Focus Apps - **Made by:** The Generation Lab - **Website:** https://digitox.app - **Runs on:** Android - **Who should skip it:** Skip it if you use iPhone, because it is Android only and iOS is a waitlist. - **Facts last checked:** Nov 13, 2026 ## Pricing As of Nov 13, 2026, Digitox has a free plan, and paid plans start at $4.49 per item (in-app purchase; billing basis not shown). - **Pricing model:** Free plan - **Free plan:** Free to install from Google Play with in-app purchases; the listing does not say which features the free version includes. - **Free trial:** None listed. | Plan | Price | What you get | | --- | --- | --- | | In-app purchase | $4.49 per item; billing period and what it unlocks not stated | The only in-app price the US Google Play listing shows. | Read from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=phosphorus.app.usage.screen.time&hl=en&gl=US on Nov 13, 2026.

Digitox limits apps and counts short videos, such as TikTok and Reels, on Android. The Play listing shows one in-app price of $4.49 without saying what it unlocks, the content features are in beta, and it is Android only. - **Value for money: C.** One in-app price, $4.49 per item, with no billing period or contents stated, so there is nothing to grade it against. - **Free plan and trial: C.** Free to install, but the listing does not say what the free version includes. - **Features: C.** App limits, short-video diet mode, topic blocker and work-hours blocking. The content features are marked beta. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. It needs Accessibility Service access and some setup before the limits work. - **Platforms and integrations: D.** Android only for now, with an iOS waitlist. These are ToolGPA's own grades.

You could make the core of Digitox for yourself: habit tracking. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. - You could make: Habit tracking: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: Blocking that reaches every browser and app and is hard to switch off. - You could not: A real app for Android. Something home-made would be a web page. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool.
