Calculate My Regret

What Regretly Estimates

Regretly turns daily usage into years, hours, opportunity cost, and a 0-100 Regret Score. The result is directional, personal, and built to help you decide what to change next.

  • Use your daily phone habit as the calculator baseline.
  • See a 0-100 Regret Score without medical wording.
  • Start with a one-hour daily reduction target.

How We Estimate This

Time lost = daily hours x years with habit x 365.25

Opportunity cost = time lost x estimated hourly value

Regret Score = usage intensity + accumulated loss + life share

Figures are directional and vary by country, age, platform, and lifestyle. Regretly uses public screen-time and digital-behavior context from sources such as DataReportal, Pew Research Center, and GWI, then calculates your personal estimate from your own inputs.
