### 5/5 — Muito bom

*2026-09-24*

Amo

**Developer response:** Olá, que bom saber que você ama o AppBlock. Ficamos felizes por ajudar no controle do tempo de tela, nos hábitos digitais e no foco do dia a dia. Obrigada pelo carinho - Anna

### 5/5 — Es hilft mir

*2026-09-23*

Überhaupt mal zu reflektieren, wieviel Zeit ich am Handy hänge, hat mich schockiert. Ich versuche durch konsequentes Blocken dem nun entgegenzuwirken und dabei unterstützt mich diese App wunderbar.

**Developer response:** Hallo, danke für diese ehrliche Rückmeldung. Dieser bewusste Blick auf die eigene Bildschirmzeit ist ein großer Schritt. Schön, dass AppBlock Sie beim konsequenten Blocken unterstützt und hilft, gesündere digitale Gewohnheiten aufzubauen. Weiterhin viel Stärke auf diesem Weg - Anna

### 4/5 — Ce qu’il me fallait

*2026-09-23*

J’utilisais trop mon tel, les réseaux, les jeux et je voulais fortement ralentir mon utilisation. Je met 4 étoiles car il n’y a rien à reprocher à cette application. J’ai choisi l’abonnement car à mon goût, la version gratuite n’apporte vraiment que le strict minimum et pour quelqu’un qui souhaite faire comme moi, il faudra forcément payer … Faut-il encore que le temps d’écran de IOS ne me met pas une utilisation H24 de mes sites internets … Bref, superbe application !

**Developer response:** Bonjour, bravo pour cette démarche pour ralentir réseaux et jeux. Ravie qu’AppBlock vous aide à mieux gérer votre temps d’écran et vos habitudes numériques. Je comprends votre remarque sur la version gratuite, et iOS peut parfois fausser le suivi des sites. Si besoin, écrivez à apple@appblock.app. - Anna

### 1/5 — Sacanagem

*2026-09-19*

Fiz a assinatura do premium anual em agosto. Hoje, menos de um mês depois, abro o app que diz que minha assinatura está expirada.

**Developer response:** Olá, sinto muito por isso. Uma assinatura anual aparecendo como expirada tão cedo geralmente indica uma falha na sincronização da compra. Tente em Configurações > Restaurar Compra. Se isso não resolver, escreva para apple@appblock.app para que possamos corrigir seu Premium rapidamente.

- Eva

### 4/5 — Super

*2026-09-18*

C’est vraiment bien car ça t’évite de scroller « juste 5 minutes avant de dormir » 
Malheureusement la version gratuite de garenti que deux jours je trouve ça dommage

**Developer response:** Bonjour, merci d’avoir partagé ce moment si concret du “juste 5 minutes” avant de dormir. Nous sommes ravis qu’AppBlock vous aide à réduire le screen time. Pour la version gratuite, Premium nous aide aussi à maintenir et améliorer l’accès gratuit. - Anna

### 5/5 — The Free Version is effective

*2026-09-18, version 4.12.3*

The Free Version is effective

### 5/5 — Super recomendo

*2026-09-18, version 4.12.2*

Modo restrito é foda, eu amo e odeio de tão bom kk

### 4/5 — Cool

*2026-09-17, version 4.12.3*

Would be better if
It was ACTUALLY $5 a month and not $50 a year.

### 5/5 — the premium is worth it if you’re really struggling

*2026-09-17*

i have to say, i tried a lot of apps for blocking social media lol. my addiction to socials was full fledged.. and i would always just bypass the rules i made for myself. they may work for a few days but eventually it just became second nature to unlock whatever i set. with the premium of app block, having a schedule set that automatically turns on strict mode has been a game changer for me. i have seen my time on social media shrink immediately! i dont even miss it tbh, not half as much as i thought i would. i know i cant unblock it even if i wanted so i move on. there’s even been days recently where i forget that my schedule has ended and i dont even open social media all day!! MAJOR shift from opening probably hundreds of times a day. i am really thankful for this app. feels like i am finally living more present and getting my time back!

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing such a real shift. Going from opening social media hundreds of times a day to forgetting the schedule ended is huge. We’re glad AppBlock Premium and Strict Mode help you stay focused, reduce screen time, and feel more present. Proud to support this change - Anna

### 4/5 — Way too many notifications

*2026-09-16, version 4.12.2*

Great app, but they keep adding new ways to send notifications even if i had notifications disabled??? I didn’t have permissions enabled and they still kept sending them? Kind of intrusive. Had to allow notification permissions to disable them when I had never enabled them in the first place.
