Description
Limitly helps iPhone users set boundaries around distracting apps and websites. Build recurring blocking schedules for routines, or start a one-off Quick Focus session when you need uninterrupted time. The free plan includes one active recurring schedule. Limitly Plus removes that limit and adds Strict and Focused modes; Focused mode allows one 15-minute break. Built with Apple Screen Time controls for iOS 18.2 and later.
