  • One addiction for another?

    Here’s the problem. In order to gain “points” and move the next level, you have to keep setting, closing, and resetting the “Block” feature every 30 minutes. Otherwise, the people who are doing it all end up in the top 15 group to move to the next level. This should be based on setting your phone down for 30 minutes, or turning it off for 30 minutes. NOT jumping on it to reset the 30 minute/5 point timer! What are we really doing here?
  • Works well- and I’d like a Creator Mode

    Of all the apps like this I e tried this is by far the best. The gamefication aspect is effective and keeps it positive like a fun challenge. I had a six day streak keeping my goals. It’s just too expensive in the current times we are in. It was less I’d strongly consider keeping it.
  • EVERYTHING costs money

  • Super Helpful

    This app helped me go from 6 hours on my phone a day to around 4. Doomscrolling wrecked my grades since I would procrastinate and waste hours on Instagram, now I'm barely on there since I have limited time. My only suggestion is add a dark mode option, so I don't get flashbanged when I open the app.
  • Don’t buy into the trial period - you pay anyway

    I call it a scam hopefully to get attention on the case. I’ve emailed and sent two denied requests to apple already for the refund of the 7-day trial. At sign up, I was told I’d be reminded before it ended. It looked all great until I was charged a day early and refused my refund request. Also, the rewards you can earn do not work. I was charged an additional subscription fee after following the link to audiobooks.com and I earned no credits as the app marketed. Disappointed, and hoping for some assistance so this can be resolved. Thank you.
  • Effective, but not without issues

    This app has cut my screen time in half within a month, and I didn’t think that was possible. So it is effective. That said, XP aspects are not great- XP from blocking sessions is lost if the end of the session overlaps a scheduled session, and the leaderboard is clearly fake, which limits its usefulness (XP can only be earned in 5 or 10pt increments, but no other leaderboard players have scores ending in 0 or 5). Minor quibbles overall since my screen time IS down, but still room for improvement. The benefit to my mental health was enough that I paid for the app. I do wish that there was a weekly recap or a way to view trends over time.
  • Crashes frequently and lots of lag time

    I love the concept of this app and think it’s well executed however I experienced significant tech issues (major lag time with app functions and frequent crashes ) most times when I was using it :/
  • Lots of bugs

    I think the app is great but sometimes my sessions disappear even when they’re scheduled. Also I think the screen time widget should refresh automatically. Sometimes I forget it even works until I hit refresh and see how bad my screen time already is. Making it refresh automatically would be more impactful so I can see it without having to think about refreshing it. But yeah the main issue is that halfway during a blocking session with the “all apps” rule, they start frayed out and then randomly aren’t greyed out anymore but the block session still has like two hours left on it. I neeeeed it to block me please. For a paid app, I feel this issue should be fixed.
