What's in the Weekly Report?

The Weekly Report is a short story-style recap of how your week went on monitored apps. It shows up once a week and walks you through six pages of stats, comparisons, and a small note from us. It's the most concentrated look at your progress that Detox offers: you don't have to dig through cards on the Progress page to see how the week played out.


When you see it


A new Weekly Report unlocks every Sunday at 6pm (18:00) local time. Your very first report unlocks on the first Sunday at 6pm after you start using Detox. You don't need a full week of tracking first; as long as Detox has been tracking your screen time, reaching that first Sunday evening is what unlocks it.


You'll see two entry points to the report:

  • A widget at the top of the Home page. It appears Sunday at 6pm and stays until Monday 11pm local time, and only while you haven't opened the current week's report yet.
  • A card on the Progress page. Unlike the Home widget, this card doesn't disappear on Monday night, so it's the reliable place to open the report whenever you want.


Tap either to open the report.


The six pages


The report is a sequence, not a dashboard. Tap to advance from page to page.


  1. Cover: a soft intro to your week.
  2. Hours lost: the time you spent on monitored apps this week. Shown in coral to make the cost feel real.
  3. Hours saved: the time you didn't spend, relative to your pre-Detox baseline. Shown in green.
  4. Key insights: a few highlights about the week (your best day, comparisons, notable shifts).
  5. Best day: a closer look at the day you spent the least on monitored apps.
  6. Acknowledgement: a short note from us closing out the report.


The whole thing is meant to take under a minute. The pages are designed to be felt more than studied.


After the report


Once you've opened a Weekly Report, the widget disappears from the Home page until the next Sunday. The numbers from the report feed into the Progress page cards (Recent Progress, Month by Month, Lifetime Reclaimed), so you can revisit them anytime there.


Occasionally, the report leads into a short lifetime-offer pop-up. See What is Lifetime access? for context.


What to do if it doesn't appear


A few things to check:


  • Is it before Sunday 6pm? A new report unlocks each Sunday at 6pm local time. Before that, the current week's report isn't ready yet.
  • Have you already opened this week's report? The Home widget hides after one view. Open it from the Progress page card if you want to re-read it; that card stays available.
  • Is this your very first week? Your first report unlocks the first Sunday at 6pm after you start using Detox, and the Progress page card shows a countdown until that moment. That countdown only appears before your first-ever report. There is no "full week of data" requirement; as long as Detox has been tracking your screen time, reaching that first Sunday evening is all it takes.
