Our verdict

Doxo blocks distracting apps and websites, then turns habit-building into a game where completing quests earns coins that open up screen time. People who respond better to game mechanics than a plain screen-time timer are the clear audience. It is aimed at a general audience rather than clinical mental health treatment, and it is only available on iOS with in-app purchases layered on top of the free download.

✓What it does well
