Great with issues

This works great. The only problem I have is with the location based blocking. I can turn off the precision location on my iphone and this will unlock the blocked apps. In addition to this, regardless of the location settings when I leave my house which unlocks an app, the app will stay unlocked until I reopen Appblock even if return home.

Response from developer

Hello, it’s great to hear AppBlock works well for you overall. I’m sorry the location based blocking can be bypassed and doesn’t relock after returning home. iOS background location changes can affect this. Please email apple@appblock.app so we can check your setup. - Anna

This app changed my life

Es hilft mir

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.

Response from developer

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

Ce qu’il me fallait

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 !

Response from developer

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
