Reflect with Claude — Anthropic adds a screen-time dashboard to Claude
Reflect with Claude is a new Anthropic dashboard that shows how much time you spend in Claude, what you use it for, and asks whether that fits your goals. It launched July 9 in beta for Free, Pro, and Max users with memory turned on.

What is it?
Reflect with Claude is a beta feature Anthropic added on July 9 that gives Claude a usage dashboard. Reflect summarises which topics you have been discussing, the kinds of tasks you run through Claude, and how that has changed over 1, 3, 6, or 12 months, then invites a conversation about whether that fits how you want to spend your time.
How does it work?
Reflect with Claude reads Claude's existing memory of past conversations — the same memory feature Anthropic already ships — and clusters that history into topic buckets, task types, and time bands. On top of the summary, Reflect surfaces reflective prompts (for example 'What is one thing you want to keep doing yourself?') and lets users set quiet hours or schedule a break nudge after a chosen amount of use.
Why does it matter?
Reflect with Claude is the first serious 'screen-time' feature from a frontier lab, borrowing the shape of Apple and Google's phone-usage tools and pointing them at an AI chatbot. Anthropic is deliberately encouraging users to use Claude less at times, which is a departure from engagement-maximising design and lands a week after several critics argued LLM assistants risk offloading too much day-to-day thinking.
Who is it for?
Consumer Claude users on Free, Pro, and Max who already have memory turned on and want visibility into how their AI use is trending.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I turn on Reflect with Claude?
- Reflect with Claude is a beta setting Anthropic rolls out to Free, Pro, and Max users who have Claude's memory feature turned on. Once memory is enabled, the Reflect dashboard shows up under the Claude settings, summarising the last 1, 3, 6, or 12 months of chats and letting you schedule quiet hours or a break nudge.
- What does Reflect with Claude actually show?
- Reflect with Claude opens with a summary of how you have been using Claude — top topics, common task types, and rough time bands — and invites a conversation with Claude about whether that pattern matches your goals. Reflect surfaces prompts like 'What is one thing you want to keep doing yourself, even if Claude could do it faster?'
- Is Reflect with Claude available on Enterprise or Team plans?
- Anthropic launched Reflect with Claude only for Free, Pro, and Max subscribers in beta on July 9. The announcement does not include Team, Enterprise, or Claude for Work, and the feature is gated on Claude memory being turned on, which admins can restrict on managed plans.
- What data does Reflect with Claude use?
- Reflect with Claude reads the same conversation history that Claude's memory feature already stores for the user. Anthropic frames the dashboard as an aggregation over that history — topic summaries and time bands — rather than a new export of chat text, and it will not appear at all for users who have kept memory off.
