5/5Lifesaver of a time-saver
I’ve been trying a few things to make my phone more annoying to use, or helpful when I do, and not a boredom eraser. One Sec is something that I wish I had years ago. I finally feel like I have the opportunity to fill my downtime with something other than my phone screen! My adhd makes all of this harder than it might otherwise be, but with a little help from this app (and a lot of work on myself), I’ve started journaling, meditating, budgeting better, doing more real-world projects around the house… the Structured integration helps with that too. By the way, I’m not sure why people are complaining about the price. $20 for a whole year is practically nothing. Something I’d like to be able to do with the app is set a time limit on how long you can use a particular app before the interventions start. That way (if I’m good) I don’t have to wait for the intervention while I’m out at the store and trying to look something up before buying it, for example.

5/5Brilliant
This app is brilliant. I have it on all my iOS devices. I feel like most screen time reducing apps come and go, as half baked ideas put together over a weekend. This one is different. It feels as put together, or even more so, than Apple’s own screen time controls. It’s obvious the creator of this app made this for themselves as it applies to users’ real uses very well. I’m someone who uses various ways to make my devices more “dumb” or minimal. I mix this with feed blockers, screen time settings, greyscale, and not having social media apps on my phone. This is a very important piece of my already pretty elaborate puzzle. This app can probably do more than I can grasp right now. I just use it to slow load apps and make them get progressively slower overtime. As my dopamine rush gets slower every time I wait for an app to load, I could just delete this app out of frustration. But I don’t. I feel like a kid knowing maybe it’s best if only mom can open the cookie jar. I also use the app for app blocking which is super cool. My only request is if I could set a timer for app blocking. What I mean: set timer and in 25 minutes all apps on the list will be blocked. That way maybe when I need or want to go down the rabbit hole, there is going to be a hard cutoff upcoming that I can’t stop. Otherwise I’ll just willingly not stop and go down a binge, which I unfortunately too often do.

1/5I am over it 👎
I have loved this app since I began using it 6 months ago. It even inspired me to purchase my cousin an iPhone, knowing that I would be able to restrict their screen time and break the dopamine-induced doom scrolling that social media and games can oftentimes induce. When I was going to sign up for the family plan, I saw the price had increased from $25 to $40. For reference, the individual plan is $20. Honestly, if I only intended to add one additional user to the subscription, what incentive is there in not receiving a discount? Look at it this way: 2x individual plans = $40; 2x users on family plan = $40. What's the difference? This is really shortsighted and selfish of the developer, in my opinion, and it makes me want to not even renew the individual subscription. $40 is too much. The app is good and well thought out, but it isn't actually providing that grand of a solution to justify that price, even for multiple users. $25 actually motivated me to add users to the app, given it was only a $5 increase from what I was paying. Doubling the price only frustrates me and makes me want to protest the developer's greed, and it shows that their intent isn't to actually provide a solution and make that accessible to more people, but to squeeze every dollar from their user base. What a careless decision towards users. I'll be deleting the app.

5/5Genuinely life changing - try try try it
Never in my life have I written a review for an app but I’ve tried every single thing to stop using Instagram (but still wanted to have it in my phone so I can use once in a while) and nothing worked. I deleted the app then used it on Safari (terrible interface so assumed I couldn’t possibly get addicted) and then used it sm I had to block the website on my phone. If I ever redownloaded Instagram I’d once more use it so so much. With One Sec, the little number of times opened in 24hrs and the x hours since last opened have an insane grip on me like I don’t want to see that number over like 1-2 times ever. So then I started like being more conscious about when I opened the app bc I don’t want to ‘waste’ my app opens (ex if Im switching between apps or have to leave the house in 5 mins not worth it). Now I’m opening Instagram just a couple times a week and just don’t feel the need to go on it much more. Anyways rant but so so good at least give it a try if you’ve ever wanted to use any app less you have nothing to lose.

3/5Great app, but…
This is a very clever application that does precisely what it’s advertised to. It requires a form of intervention before opening an app of your choice, and this is highly customizable. There are lots of interventions to choose from, and how long you want them to be. You can also have it choose a random exercise for you, and it supports website blocking as well, which is nice. You can also set up a bedtime schedule where it blocks all apps and websites. It provides an informative dashboard detailing approximately how much time you saved. However, I really can’t get behind the modern era of subscription based apps. Especially for the lifetime license costing a whopping FIFTY dollars, and SEVENTY for a “family plan”. I don’t have any problem supporting independent developers and paying for software, but I personally feel like this is overpriced for what it does. Most of it is just relying on the iOS shortcuts functionality anyway, and all the app is doing is showing a pretty GUI and recording the time. You could replicate something similar in shortcuts (although not entirely, like website blocking for instance.) If you don’t mind the cost, go for it, but I would probably pay $15 maximum for a lifetime license, not $50. Especially considering many people using this are likely college students.

4.1.10
- Automatically removes target app lock / “intervention cheat prevention” after 1 minute. - Fixes an issue where on some devices Re-Interventions could be removed by locking and unlocking the device screen. - Fixes an issue where under some circumstanced blocked apps could be unlocked during blocks. - Delayed interventions now follow intervention schedules as well. - Fixes an issue with research studies.
4.1.11
This update fixes an issue where one sec’s “Settings Lock” could result in very short intervention times. On top of that, we’re adding a new research collaboration with Wuppertal University.
4.1.12
This update fixes an issue where one sec’s “Settings Lock” could result in very short intervention times. On top of that, we’re adding a new research collaboration with Wuppertal University.
4.1.4
Another small, but important bug-fix update: - Fixes an issue where per-app breathing prompts were not saved permanently. - Fixes an issue where the “Lock Target App during Intervention” feature would keep locking the target app even when the intervention is turned off or the intervention mode is switched. - Ensures that push permission is granted when “Always Ask” intervention is set up.
4.1.5
This update adds a new data donation research project in collaboration with RWTH Aachen. If you’d like to participate, please fill out the opt-in survey that’s shown in a banner on one sec’s Overview page.
4.1.6
- If a subscription expires, and you had the one sec settings lock enabled, you can now go through an intervention again to unlock one sec’s settings. - Fixes an issue where you couldn’t add new websites to one sec’s Safari extension. - Fixes an issue where the latest update of one sec would crash on iOS 16 devices. Sorry about the trouble!

4.1.8
- Fixes an issue where the anti-cheat protection would remain active even when the target app is allowed to be used (e..g allowed by focus filter). - Fixes an issue where the Structured intervention would not trigger for Delayed Interventions. You need to set up Automations for the target apps, in order for the Structured intervention to work, even for the new Delayed Intervention mode. - Accessibility VoiceOver improvements for the time interval picker (Re-Interventions and “Always Ask Intervention”). Shout-out to Marissa for bringing this to our attention! - Improves capabilities to re-connect apps via the Screen Time app picker in case glitches with Apple’s Screen Time framework occur. - Smaller UI improvements and bug fixes throughout the whole app. If you like one sec and the continuous work we put into app updates, I’d highly appreciate if you could take three minutes to leave a review on the App Store ＜3 – Frederik
4.1.9
This update contains smaller bug fixes and improvements: Ensures that the settings lock and shortcuts app lock uses the default breathing exercise when the budgeting feature is enabled.
5.0
We’re celebrating one sec’s 5th birthday this month. It’s hard to believe that it’s been 5 years already since I started working on one sec. I’m grateful every day I get to work on such an impactful app with the best team I could wish for! This summer, we’ve been working extremely hard on a large list of new features, improvements and bug-fixes and we can’t wait to get it into your hands. We decided to call this update: one sec 5.0 This update brings… …an all-new block tab: upcoming & past blocks at a glance (no matter if they are triggered by a Schedule, a manual Block, Good Morning Countdown, Focus Filter, a Structured task…). …an all-new tips tab with hands-on tips to get the most out of one sec & your new life. …a new conversational reflection intervention using the new on-device LLM helping you to reflect even more on why you open apps. …a much improved ”Good Morning Countdown“ that now integrates with the new no-mercy alarm clock app “Awake”. …many many design refinements and bug fixes throughout one sec.

5.2.10 · 19 Aug 2026
An update full of bug fixes!

PS: We are super busy working on the next big update for one sec :)
5.2.3
- Performance improvements for one sec’s interventions. - New research infrastructure powering future studies within one sec. - Localization improvements. - Dynamic Island improvements. - Adds new math intervention. - Improved random text intervention.
5.2.4
- Performance improvements for one sec’s interventions. - New research infrastructure powering future studies within one sec. - Localization improvements. - Dynamic Island improvements. - Adds new math intervention. - Improved random text intervention.
5.2.5
This is probably one of the most impactful bug fix updates yet for one sec: - With this update, one sec implements a series of improvements with apps connected via screen time: if you’re using iOS 26.5 (or newer) there should now be way fewer glitches and issues. This is really a big step forward. I’d like to thank Apple for the great collaboration making that happen. Looking forward to more screen time bug fixes in the future :) - On top of that, this update addresses an issue where apps shielded by delayed interventions could be accidentally unlocked even before the next full hour hast started. Sorry about the trouble! - After our last performance focused update, this one also implements a series of smaller bug fixes and addresses UI glitches (especially inside interventions). - Implements improvements for an ongoing research project. - Fixes issues regarding the Shortcuts app lock feature. - Fixes an issue where blocked websites were not exposed in the block preview. - Improves layout for Dynamic Island timer, especially for longer intentions. - Fixes an issue where the start / end time stamps of Focus Filters were not displayed correctly in the block tab.
5.2.6
This is a small update with big impact: If you’re running iOS 26.5 (or newer) you will no longer have to do the notification dance when going through Re-Interventions or Delayed Interventions. When you press the “Intervention” button, the breathing exercise (or other intervention of your choice) will simply show up. On top of that, we’ve made small improvements to the Structured integration & the block tab in general. Hope you’re enjoying our little updates over the past few weeks! If you like one sec, it would help a lot if you could leave us a nice review on the App Store. Thank you! – Frederik
5.2.7
We’ve been working on a series of smaller improvements once again for one sec: - Improves app-usage insights during breathing interventions, adding a new “24-hour time spent” mode. - Fixes a hang when editing custom breathing prompts. - Fixes breathing prompt selection so global prompts are used when app-specific prompts are empty. - Fixes empty Healthy Alternatives screens. - Fixes Good Morning Countdown allow-list behavior. - Automatically ends live activities for manual blocks when the block is over. - Improves random text interventions to avoid offensive substrings. - General stability, accessibility, localization, and maintenance improvements. Thanks a lot for using one sec. If you like the app & our continuous work, please support us by writing a review on the App Store. That helps a lot! – Frederik

I finally feel like I have the opportunity to fill my downtime with something other than my phone screen! My adhd makes all of this harder than it might otherwise be, but with a little help from this app (and a lot of work on myself), I’ve started journaling, meditating, budgeting better, doing more real-world projects around the house… the Structured integration helps with that too. By the way, I’m not sure why people are complaining about the price. $20 for a whole year is practically nothing. Something I’d like to be able to do with the app is set a time limit on how long you can use a particular app before the interventions start. That way (if I’m good) I don’t have to wait for the intervention while I’m out at the store and trying to look something up before buying it, for example.",

          "body": "This app is brilliant. I have it on all my iOS devices. I feel like most screen time reducing apps come and go, as half baked ideas put together over a weekend. This one is different. It feels as put together, or even more so, than Apple’s own screen time controls. It’s obvious the creator of this app made this for themselves as it applies to users’ real uses very well. I’m someone who uses various ways to make my devices more “dumb” or minimal. I mix this with feed blockers, screen time settings, greyscale, and not having social media apps on my phone. This is a very important piece of my already pretty elaborate puzzle. This app can probably do more than I can grasp right now. I just use it to slow load apps and make them get progressively slower overtime. As my dopamine rush gets slower every time I wait for an app to load, I could just delete this app out of frustration. But I don’t. I feel like a kid knowing maybe it’s best if only mom can open the cookie jar. I also use the app for app blocking which is super cool. My only request is if I could set a timer for app blocking. What I mean: set timer and in 25 minutes all apps on the list will be blocked. That way maybe when I need or want to go down the rabbit hole, there is going to be a hard cutoff upcoming that I can’t stop. Otherwise I’ll just willingly not stop and go down a binge, which I unfortunately too often do.",

          "body": "I have loved this app since I began using it 6 months ago. It even inspired me to purchase my cousin an iPhone, knowing that I would be able to restrict their screen time and break the dopamine-induced doom scrolling that social media and games can oftentimes induce. When I was going to sign up for the family plan, I saw the price had increased from $25 to $40. For reference, the individual plan is $20. Honestly, if I only intended to add one additional user to the subscription, what incentive is there in not receiving a discount? Look at it this way: 2x individual plans = $40; 2x users on family plan = $40. What's the difference? This is really shortsighted and selfish of the developer, in my opinion, and it makes me want to not even renew the individual subscription. $40 is too much. The app is good and well thought out, but it isn't actually providing that grand of a solution to justify that price, even for multiple users. $25 actually motivated me to add users to the app, given it was only a $5 increase from what I was paying. Doubling the price only frustrates me and makes me want to protest the developer's greed, and it shows that their intent isn't to actually provide a solution and make that accessible to more people, but to squeeze every dollar from their user base. What a careless decision towards users. I'll be deleting the app.",

I deleted the app then used it on Safari (terrible interface so assumed I couldn’t possibly get addicted) and then used it sm I had to block the website on my phone. If I ever redownloaded Instagram I’d once more use it so so much. With One Sec, the little number of times opened in 24hrs and the x hours since last opened have an insane grip on me like I don’t want to see that number over like 1-2 times ever. So then I started like being more conscious about when I opened the app bc I don’t want to ‘waste’ my app opens (ex if Im switching between apps or have to leave the house in 5 mins not worth it). Now I’m opening Instagram just a couple times a week and just don’t feel the need to go on it much more. Anyways rant but so so good at least give it a try if you’ve ever wanted to use any app less you have nothing to lose.",

          "body": "This is a very clever application that does precisely what it’s advertised to. It requires a form of intervention before opening an app of your choice, and this is highly customizable. There are lots of interventions to choose from, and how long you want them to be. You can also have it choose a random exercise for you, and it supports website blocking as well, which is nice. You can also set up a bedtime schedule where it blocks all apps and websites. It provides an informative dashboard detailing approximately how much time you saved. However, I really can’t get behind the modern era of subscription based apps. Especially for the lifetime license costing a whopping FIFTY dollars, and SEVENTY for a “family plan”. I don’t have any problem supporting independent developers and paying for software, but I personally feel like this is overpriced for what it does. Most of it is just relying on the iOS shortcuts functionality anyway, and all the app is doing is showing a pretty GUI and recording the time. You could replicate something similar in shortcuts (although not entirely, like website blocking for instance.) If you don’t mind the cost, go for it, but I would probably pay $15 maximum for a lifetime license, not $50. Especially considering many people using this are likely college students.",
