Have you tried RescueTime? It's a similar app that prompts you to log your activities every time you unlock your phone.

It's surprising to see how much time can slip by unnoticed each day. Using it can really make you more mindful of how you're spending it.

I didn't know they had such a feature. I'm going to check this out.

Exactly. I have so many unnecessary phone pickups during the day. Without such apps that would slip unnoticed. Also, it's worth mentioning that when you notice those moments at least in my case it makes you feel guilty a bit that you picking it up unconsciously, but maybe that's my individual behaviour.


Does it do this on iOS? I just cancelled RT because it crashed on my work computer all the time but if the phone app weren’t useless that might be different.
