    FIRST: a great app for blocks but it would really help users if you could set a default time limit amount to open the app for, like 5 minutes instead of letting you choose (because the dopamine add it in my will ALWAYS pick 15 minutes). SECONDLY: my app seems to glitch occasionally and let me go on a scrolling rampage that it quite difficult to leave (can we please fix this) THIRD: a full block for all the time i feel could potentially resolve these issues (instead i currently have a block that goes from like 1 am to 12 so i get 23 hrs of block) developers: please consider these suggestions (they seem like quick fixes that would really help a lot of people)

    When it works its great! It randomly stops working sometimes and I'll end up spending 40 minutes on my phone when it was supposed to cut me off after 10 minutes. There also doesn't appear to be an option for turning the haptics off and I HATE it.

    My screen time was originally 7-9 hours a day, but after I installed Opal, my screen time was down to about 45 minutes-1 hour a day. Do recommend if you want to use your phone less.
  • Ads all of a sudden

    If you don’t take the ads out I’m going to delete the app and find a different one. How can you justify replacing the mindfulness screen which is supposed to add calming friction to our phone usage with advertisements for addictive slop mobile games? That’s just completely and utterly antithetical to the entire project of having a focus app. Frankly Disgusting.
  • Works great for me

    This app has helped me a lot!! It has helped me focus on the moment, be with friends and family, study more, read more, and just sit with myself My only complaints are that the screen time it says for the friend leaderboard is incredibly inaccurate. I barely picked up my phone today and spent hours doing homework and studying away from my phone. That screentime says I spent almost 6 hours on my phone. Whereas the screentime tab says 55 minutes. My actual reported screentime by phone is 1 hour and 30 mins. So, saying I have a 5 hour scvreen time is insane. Yes I have already turned off the ability for my screentime to sync across devices, but not even my iPad’s screen time and the screentime opal gives me on the lead board match. My other complaint is that it blocks apps that are set to block after two hours collectively that I haven’t used at all! It’s a constant thing. Please fix these issues.
