Sneaky sales techniques and subscription
Immediately trying to manipulate using disingenuous sales techniques.
Doesn’t do much but pop up as you’re using a particular app with a message - that’s it.
Charges £60 for annual subscription which is scandalous.
As soon as you cancel will instantly offer a 60% discount.
The people who have paid £60 will feel ripped off, and , but they’re not meant to know anyway.
Those who take the 60% discount will be paying the intended price all along and think they’ve got a “deal” when they haven’t.
Avoid this app there are others that do the same but better and more and for a cheaper price.

My screen time has plummeted
Response from developer
Hi Ellainy, high five on a screen time reduction of 15% per week, strong! 🎉 Happy to read you're enjoying the gentleness of the Wellspent nudges. Guilt trip has never helped anyone. Thanks for your review! Best from Berlin - Christina
Allow access to screen time
I really want to try the app but I am unable to link screen time access
Response from developer
Hi Haam9, please make sure to have a passcode and/or FaceID or TouchID set up on your iPhone. This is required to allow access to screen time. 💪 Hope this solves the issue and we can welcome you to the Wellspent community! Best from Berlin - Christina
Worked well at first
ETA: every few days I need to go into settings and disallow Wellspent from accessing Screen
Time and then allow it again and it will start working. Seems inconsistent, but is good when it works.
Response from developer
Rest assured, we're giving all we can to make Wellspent *the* thing. As a quick fix, I recommend force-closing and opening Wellspent every other day to improve stability. At the same time, it's our highest priority to make sure Wellspent runs smooth at all times on all devices. Please make sure to always get the latest Wellspent and iOS version on your iPhone.
Malfunctions Frequently

Hi Adwoa2d, thanks for appreciating the concept of Wellspent. I'm sorry to read about your bumpy experience. Please reach out to customer support and we'll do our best to make sure Wellspent works for extended periods than just one day. 💪 Best - Christina
Love it
Response from developer
Delighted to hear that you're finding the pop-ups effective! Your suggestion for customized reminder schedules is super valuable (and something we already have in our pipeline. 😎). Thank you for being a part of the Wellspent community! 🌈
Wish I could love this …
I got the paid version for a full year thinking that would be well worth it to finally have assistance in kicking my social media addiction, but I’m a few months in and I’m lucky if the app works for a full day at a time.
It either crashes in the background and stops working completely (this is the most frequent issue), or glitches and totally locks me out of everything with no option to bypass and I have to go turn it off and back on again through phone settings.
I hope they can work out the bugs - I did reach out by message in the app support and was told they were working on the glitches. That was a month or so ago though and so far no improvement.

Great app but doesn't always work
Response from developer
LOL, loving the observation. However, I can promise you this is total coincidence. A few users are experiencing issues related to inconsistency. We're working with highest priority on fixing it. Please always get the latest Wellspent and iOS version on your device. 💪 Best from Berlin - Christina
The app is ok
1. The time counter would only randomly work at the background. Most of the times I need to open the app itself and wait for the time pie chart to get updated with the usage. This is very unhelpful when doomscrolling;(
2. My restriction is on social media apps. It is not unusual for them to be blocked in the morning without me actually opening any social media. I can’t understand the logic or what triggers this blockage if social media usage was 0% for that day
3. It’d be great if the app stored some stats and provide an overview of the daily usage. Like 2 hrs spent on Tuesday, 5 hours on Wednesday.
Thank you
