We're Oliver and Royce and we're the founders of Clearspace. We build tools to help people reduce their screen time (here’s us two years ago: Launch HN: Clearspace (YC W23) – Cut back on screen time | Hacker News)
We get all kinds of requests from users for ways they'd like to use their screen time data.
This is the first time iOS Screen Time is accessible on the web. Apple doesn’t expose it, but since we measure it ourselves, we can - via UI or API. We're launching this API so developers can build all these tools and more. Our goal is to enable more solutions to what we believe is the biggest problem in the world - the misalignment of human attention and intention in the digital world.
Here's a quick demo of setting up and using the API: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QahETj3xaaIsn0JiNbuqvTaSLdx...

- “Auto-donate $x to charity every time I exceed a limit or try to bypass it”
- “My 75 Hard group has a screen time requirement, can we set up group visibility?”
- “Let my personal agent know if it’s a good time to tackle things on my todo list”
- “Auto-report large deviations in my screen time to my therapist “
