### 3/5 — Needs some bug fixes

*2024-03-13*

I love love love the concept of this app, it has already helped me so much with decreasing the amount of wasted time I spend on my phone. 

That being said, recently it has started acting really buggy. It often says my time is up and blocks apps when the time is not up. I get locked out of apps every so often, even though I go in and reset the time to a larger time frame. A few days ago I uninstalled the app completely to try and get it back on track. When I reinstalled, it was acting better but now it’s back to saying my time is up when clearly there is 10 minutes left in that particular app group.

I invested money into this app because it should be so amazing. I really hope they fix these bugs so it is as awesome as it could be.

### 1/5 — Locked out of beginning

*2026-08-03*

It asks for permission to access my screen time stuff and it just does nothing after I say yes. There’s no obvious fix or help to go to.

**Developer response:** We're sorry to hear about your experience. Could you please send us a screen recording of the issue? You can email it to support@anko.solutions along with a brief description of what happened. We'll investigate the issue and do our best to find the solution

### 1/5 — Horrible

No matter what i do this app will NOT let me delete it because it is connected to my screentime

### 1/5 — Wanted to say something nice, but just can’t

*2025-08-01, version 1.7.0*

The app glitches constantly and blocks the other apps when it shouldn’t, please fix it

### 1/5 — .

*2024-08-25, version 1.6.0*

приложение потребовало ввести пароль, я ввела, теперь не могу заходить в телефон без этого пароля. нигде в настройках убрать его не могу

### 1/5 — Not that great

*2024-07-28*

It is really nothing game changing and they charged me 50$ for subscription without notifying me in advance. There is nowhere to even call and request a refund or any type of help center. Overpriced scam when there are so many free options!!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2024-05-05, version 1.2.4*

Does not open

### 1/5 — Glitch?

*2024-01-13, version 1.1.41*

I uninstalled this app just because i decided to limit my screen time myself, but now even though its uninstalled it keeps saying im spending every second of my day on this app (its says on settings 24 hours on anko) and its been a couple of days after uninstalling and its still doing it. I used to use the screen time setting to keep track if how much im actually on my phone but now i cant because ut always just shows the literal time if the day in hours. I dont know if this is a bug or sonething but can u fix it

### 2/5 — Very buggy

*2024-07-25, version 1.5.0*

If this worked properly it would be fantastic but unfortunately it is just too buggy when I try to use it. Limits don’t kick in when they should, then I get 5 rapid fire notifications that apps are locked, I have tried deleting specific limits and apps remain locked. It would also be really useful if you could set times of the day when you wanted limits to apply (eg during working hours). Hopefully this can all be fixed but until t is I will probably be deleting the app.

### 3/5 — Trava
