Best App ever

I really like this app due to the reminders are really clever. The only draw back is the the free version only lets you do one app at a time so then you keep trying to switch apps around or you just end spending loads of time on another app instead. Defo get the pro if you have the money for it

Thanks Distraction city.com for recommending Wellspent and the pro plan, so appreciated. Proud to keep crafting even more clever reminders for you to support you on the mission against digital distraction. 💪 Best from Berlin - Christina

Really Effective!!

I’m finding this app really effective. It has just the right tone and language to prompt me to decide whether to stop or continue my social media use in that moment. Love the personalisations too. Great app!!

Want to love it but I can’t

I so want to love this app. I love the idea and the concept, and I think with some work it can help a lot of people, but it’s so glitchy, it doesn’t even serve its purpose. The time counter doesn’t reset day to day and the time budgets don’t often work. The first budget I set didn’t work at all; it completely failed to record any time I spent on the apps I’d chosen. I built new budgets and some of them work, but some of them don’t. I’m really disappointed. I was ready to actually pay the subscription after my trial ended but I’m about to cancel my trial early. I’ve never actually written a review for an app before but I felt it was necessary for this one; the developers need to know that their app needs a lot of work

Actually works

I get so easily sucked into apps like Insta and Tiktok and before I knew it, loads of time would have passed. Wellspent is such a good app which honestly stops the doom scrolling and I love how you can choose what kind of message it shows you, gets me off the scrolling EVERY TIME. Honestly makes me a lot more productive, and I stop hours of my day from being wasted away. Thanks for creating such a good app!!

Hey chfjxirnedn, BIG YES to getting off the scroll to become more productive and saving hours of time from social media every day! 🎉 Thanks for making Wellspent your daily companion. Best from Berlin - Christina

Good idea, poor execution

The prompts are repetitive despite choosing all types of prompts from the list. I got the same message 3 times in a row. 2. The app won’t let you know to stop scrolling if you switch between apps before the time you set passes (time from different apps doesn’t add up). 3. The app doesn’t block anything, it only sends you messaging which is already an apple feature. I was hoping this would help me but it turned out to be a big disappointment. I’ll give it a chance for the rest of my free trial period but it is unlikely I will pay for this as there is still a lot of work to be done.

Hey AleAleks, thanks for the detailed feedback. 🙏🏽 Let me answer one by one: 1) You will always get a new, unique reminder after you hit "Close App". As long as you "snooze", you won't always get a new one. We're currently working on improving this and offer a new reminder even when "snoozing". 2) Once apps are grouped together as a budget, their time does add up. 💪 3) We're committed to never undermine our user's autonomy and thus intentionally do not block you out of your apps. Instead, we're aiming to nudge you to take a well-informed decision if you want to keep scrolling or not. This approach is backed by science. 🙂 We'd be happy to regain you as a customer in the future, please always feel free to reach out to customer support and we're there for you. Best - Christina

I’ve gained so much of my LIFE BACK!

This app has helped me stay PRODUCTIVE & remain more PRESENT in my life. Especially as a business owner and someone who is constantly on social media for work, this keeps me focused rather than do mindless scrolling.

I couldn’t recommend this app more!!! It’s amazing!!!

Whoop whoop! High five to saving and reclaiming screen time and turning it into time well spent. 🙏🏽 All the best from Berlin - Christina

Best way to reduce time on my phone!!

Works better than “one sec” at keeping me off instagram. Bc sometimes I want to scroll! And then it’ll remind me after a little bit that I shouldn’t spend too much time on it. One sec only tells me when I try to open instagram. So this works much better

Hey Aacegikmoqsuwy - hip hip hooray! Thanks for putting it better than we ever could. We've been putting a lot of thought - and behavioural science! - into our product approach and very intentionally decided to offer frequent reminders during app use instead of only when opening an app. Proud to be serving you with Wellspent! 🧡 All the best from Berlin - Christina

Not working with my phone

I was really excited to try this app but after filling out several questions and trying to set a goal, the page doesn’t fit on my iPhone SE’s screen and I can’t okay it to actually set the goal.
