About Recharge: Screen Time Battery
Recharge turns your screen time into a battery you can feel. Pick the apps that pull you in: short videos, feeds, games. They all share one battery, and you decide how long a full charge lasts, from 30 minutes to 6 hours. Every minute in those apps drains it. Put your phone down and it recharges on its own, fastest while you sleep. DAILY CHARGE LIMIT Outside your sleep hours the battery recharges up to 50% a day, so a full battery really is your daily budget. Pick 25% to 100%, or no limit, in Settings. Night charging has no limit. MEET VOLT Volt is the battery that lives in the app. Volt waves when you're fully charged, gets tired when you're running low, snoozes while it recharges at night and faints when the battery is empty. Tap Volt to hear what's on its mind. LOW POWER MODE Below 20%, your apps ask before they open. You can still open them, but they lock again shortly after you leave. BATTERY EMPTY At 0%, your chosen apps lock until the battery starts recharging. Just put the phone down for a bit. In a pinch, borrow 10% from tomorrow's charge limit, once a day. BATTERY HEALTH Run the battery flat and its maximum charge wears down by 5%. Balanced days, when you stay above 20%, bring it back. Your health history shows the last two weeks. LOCK TO RECHARGE Need a real break? Lock everything except the apps you allow, like Maps or Music, and the battery charges 20% per hour. Set a time and the lock can't be ended early, or leave it open and end it whenever you're ready. Or put it on a schedule, like every evening after dinner, and it starts by itself. BREATHING BREAK Breathe with Volt for one minute and the battery charges 5% right away, up to three times a day. WIDGETS AND LIVE ACTIVITY See Volt and your battery on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. During a lock, a countdown sits on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and you can start a lock right from Control Center. Volt also lets you know when your battery runs low, when it's full again and how your week went. STREAKS AND REWARDS Balanced days build a streak. Badges unlock outfits for Volt: a cap, sunglasses, a party hat, headphones, even a crown. WHAT DRAINED YOUR BATTERY? See the last 7 days and which apps used your battery the most. Your usage of each app stays on your device. IPHONE AND IPAD Use Recharge on both. Screen Time measures each device separately, so each one has its own battery, while your settings and battery health sync through iCloud. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Recharge uses Apple's Screen Time framework. Your usage of each app never leaves your device. With iCloud sync on, your settings, battery health and daily usage totals are kept in your own iCloud account, where we can't see them. No account, no tracking, no ads. RECHARGE PREMIUM Choose a yearly subscription with a 3-day free trial, or a monthly subscription without a trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, or when the free trial ends. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings.
