What does it look like?
Key features
Allows multiple distinct blocking windows per day, unlike the single-window limit in Apple's native Screen Time.
Records and displays every scheduled boundary as it fires, providing verification that the block is active.
Enforces a mandatory waiting period before a user can modify or disable an active block.
How much does it cost?
The freemium model anchors at $27.99/year, gating advanced scheduling and impulse-control features behind the Pro subscription.

Key takeaways for Nagomi: Screen Time Limit
Where is it heading?
The market for focus-enforcement tools is shifting toward deeper OS integration, which places Nagomi in a vulnerable position as a third-party utility. If the app does not establish a loyal user base through the reliability log before native tools evolve, the current growth trajectory will likely stall.
- The app remains in maintenance mode with no updates since the initial launch 17 days ago, signaling a wait-and-see approach to user acquisition.
The SWOT
- Multi-period scheduling enables complex daily routines that native iOS Screen Time cannot support
- Reliability log provides verification that the block is active
- Localized pricing could capture users in markets where the $27.99 annual price point exceeds local willingness-to-pay

The counter-intuitive read
The primary threat is not a rival app…
Read the full takeSince the last report: Nagomi has seen no functional or pricing changes since the previous report, maintaining its initial release state. The analysis has shifted to prioritize the existential threat posed by potential native iOS feature updates.
Bottom line
Nagomi provides a necessary utility for users requiring granular focus control, but the high annual price point creates a barrier to entry for new users. A lower-cost monthly entry tier would lower the friction for new users to verify the reliability log's value.
