In essence, its main function is to monitor the perfunctory rote task that's insidiously weaved its way into our everyday digitalized lives, that is: tapping. Unsurprisingly, Tap Too Much keeps tabs on the number of times you tap on your smartphone screen over the course of a day, and will inform you if you do, in fact, tap too much.
