# The dashboard, minutes back, stops and reflex hours

> What each number on the I've had it dashboard means, how minutes back is estimated from stopped feeds, and how to read your reflex hours and intent log.

The dashboard at [ivehadit.app/dashboard](https://ivehadit.app/dashboard) shows how many feeds were stopped, an estimate of the minutes you got back, your time on social against your daily budget, and the hours of the day you reach for a feed most. Minutes back is an estimate: 7 minutes for every feed you were stopped from opening, plus 3 minutes each time the scroll check made you stop.

## What's on the dashboard

| Card | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Reclaimed today | Today's minutes back, and how many feeds were stopped |
| Reclaimed this week | Minutes back over the last 7 days |
| Streak on target | Days in a row you stayed within your daily budget |
| Today's budget | Minutes on social today out of your budget, and how many are left |
| Social time, last 14 days | One bar per day, marked on target or over, with your budget as a line |
| Where the minutes went | This week's minutes per site |
| Reflex hours | How often you reached for a feed in each hour of the day, over 7 days |
| Intent log | The reasons you typed at the pause screen, newest first |
| Your sites, Tune it | Your plan: modes, limits and settings, which you can change here |
| Your plan, Your devices | Your trial or subscription, and each browser or phone on the account |

Until the extension is connected, the dashboard shows example numbers so you can see the layout.

## How "minutes back" is estimated

I can't know what you would have done without the extension, so minutes back is an honest rough estimate, not a measurement. For each day:

1. **Count the stops.** Every time a shut feed or a pause screen appeared, that's one. Another screen on the same site within 2 minutes doesn't count again.
2. **Take away the times you went in anyway.** Each time you chose a window at the pause screen, used the 10-minute unlock, or took two more minutes at the scroll check, one stop is taken off. The result can't go below zero.
3. **Multiply by 7.** Seven minutes is my rough average for an unplanned visit to a feed.
4. **Add 3 minutes** for each time the [scroll check](https://ivehadit.app/docs/scroll-check) asked "Found what you came for?" and you pressed "Yes, I'm done".

So a day with 10 pause screens, where you went in twice and stopped once at the scroll check, shows (10 - 2) × 7 + 3 = 59 minutes back. Quick passes don't count as stops, because the page opened.

## How time on social is counted

Time is counted in 5-second steps while a page on a watched site is open, visible and the window is in focus. It is not counted while a pause screen is showing, on sites set to Untouched, or in messages when [messages always open](https://ivehadit.app/docs/messages-always-open) is on. That total is what your daily budget and each site's daily limit are measured against. See [daily budget and limits](https://ivehadit.app/docs/daily-budget-and-limits).

## The streak

A day is on target when your time on social is within your daily budget. The streak counts on-target days in a row, ending today. One day over resets it.

## Reflex hours

Every pause screen, shut feed and quick pass counts as one reach, filed under the hour it happened. The reflex hours card adds up the last 7 days and shades each hour by how often you reached. It then names your peak hour. That hour is a good one to plan around, for example by keeping your phone in another room. The [stop doomscrolling](https://ivehadit.app/docs/stop-doomscrolling) guide has more on using it.

## The intent log

When you open a site through the [intent gate](https://ivehadit.app/docs/intent-gate), what you typed ("reply to Ana") and the chip you picked (learn, message, work, browse) are saved with the window you chose. The last eight show here. Reading them back is useful: if most say "browse", that site may want a stricter mode.

## Changing your plan from the dashboard

Under Your sites, pick a mode for each site and set its daily limit. Under Tune it, set:

- **Daily budget**, 0 to 60 minutes
- **Quick pass length**, 15, 30, 60 or 90 seconds
- **Doomscroll nudge after**, 15, 25 or 40 screens
- **No feeds before noon**, on or off

Changes are saved to your account and reach every device on its next sync. See [sync across devices](https://ivehadit.app/docs/sync-across-devices).

## The popup's numbers

The popup shows the same day's figures in short form: minutes back, minutes on social out of your budget, feeds stopped, and your streak.

## Questions

### How does I've had it calculate minutes saved?

It counts the feeds and pause screens you were stopped at, takes away the times you went in anyway, and multiplies by 7 minutes. It adds 3 minutes for each time you stopped at the scroll check. It's an estimate, and the dashboard says so.

### Why is my dashboard empty or showing example data?

The extension isn't linked to your account yet. Open the dashboard while signed in, in the browser that has the extension, and it links itself and starts syncing.

### Does the dashboard include time from all my computers?

Yes. Every linked browser sends its daily totals, and the dashboard adds them together.

### What counts as a reach in reflex hours?

Each time a pause screen, a shut feed or a quick pass appeared. It shows when the urge hits, not how long you stayed.
