### 5/5 — Good job!

*2026-02-27, version 7.9.0*

It works effectively to block harmful websites and runs quietly in the background.

### 5/5 — Helpful for self-control

*2026-01-15, version 7.9.0*

Super easy to set up and works really well. Protect myself from accessing those harmful sites!

### 5/5 — Simple but works

*2026-01-10, version 7.9.0*

Just what I needed. Locked my social apps in seconds — way better than messing with system settings.

### 5/5 — No hiccups so far

*2026-01-08, version 7.9.0*

I've tried the ios version as well, but its functionality is not as good as the macOS version, the macOS version works perfectly and does what I need exactly!

### 5/5 — Worth Every Cent

*2025-12-21, version 7.9.0*

I tried free alternatives but all had issues — unstable, intrusive, slow. AppCrypt has been smooth from day one. Fast, minimal, and extremely useful.

### 5/5 — Overall, it works for me.

*2025-12-12, version 7.9.0*

This is helpful for self-control, the only problem is that I have to ask my friend to set the password and they cannot tell me what the password is.

### 5/5 — It's a great app!

*2025-11-05, version 7.9.0*

The app works like a charm to block distractions and the customer service is fast and responsible!

### 5/5 — This tool is cool

*2025-10-16, version 7.9.0*

I used this tool to block some specific websites, and then I found that I can also use it to only allow access to certain apps. It also offers other options, which is useful for almost every scenario.

### 5/5 — Works Flawlessly!

*2025-10-15, version 7.9.0*

Super easy to set up app locks when I share computer to my family!

### 5/5 — Thanks for sending the OTP

*2025-10-14, version 7.9.0*

I downloaded AppCrypt a long time ago before and I forgot the password that I set before. Thanks for offering me an OTP to reset my password.

### 5/5 — Reliable and secure

*2025-09-14, version 7.9.0*

I love that AppCrypt runs quietly in the background and starts automatically on boot. No more worrying about forgetting to turn it on. The password protection is solid, and it gives me peace of mind knowing my private apps are safe.

### 5/5 — Perfect for keeping kids safe

*2025-09-08, version 7.9.0*

I installed AppCrypt on my Mac to stop my kids from opening certain apps and websites. Works flawlessly! I can lock anything with a password, and once it’s set, I don’t have to worry about them bypassing it. Great parental control tool.

### 5/5 — Peace of mind at office

*2025-08-10, version 7.9.0*

This has been a huge help at work. I share my Mac occasionally and wanted to prevent access to certain apps. With AppCrypt, I can lock apps with a password and control access with ease. Super secure and easy to use.

### 1/5 — No Wifi when app runs.

*2026-05-09, version 7.9.0*

When I opened the app it was fine but soon I had no wifi and it was not working whatsoever at all. I tried but it would not work at all. I had to uninstall the app I need to know how to fix this issue.

### 1/5 — スケジュール機能が不安定

*2026-03-08, version 2.0.1*

スケジュールが機能したり、機能しなかったりで困る。

### 1/5 — Easy to get around

*2025-09-30, version 7.9.0*

Doesn’t fully block certain applications. For example, the messages app, you can still right click in dock and see unread messages, then click show all windows, and you’ll be able to read them. Doesn’t seem like they are actively updating this application. Cold Turkey is much better.

### 1/5 — Müll

*2025-02-13, version 2.0.1*

Größter Müll diese App blockiert nicht mal meine Webseiten die ich blockieren will. Und von Apps will ich garnicht mal anfangen

### 1/5 — great concept but flawed

*2024-06-20, version 7.8.0*

To bypass, just delete app. This makes it useless.

### 3/5 — Pas clair

*2026-03-11, version 7.9.0*

Bloque les app. Mais pas les sites web que j’ai rentré. De plus pas de bouton pour vérifier la mise à jour comme indiqué dans l’aide. Ca fait un peu léger pour plusse 20 € quand même !!

### 3/5 — 半年前まではよかったスケジュール機能が使えない

*2025-08-13, version 2.0.1*

半年前まではスケジュール通りに時間でアクセス制限できたが今はできなくなっている。iPhoneのアップデートは9ヶ月前だしサポート終わりかな

### 3/5 — Simple & Easy

*2024-04-27, version 7.8.0*

The app is pretty simple and straight to the point. It is a little annoying that the app's custom locking screen background image defaults back to the original image everytime I restart my system. Also, occasionally my Messages screen appears before the screen locks and requires a password. However these are mild complaints considering how otherwise efficiently the app runs.

### 4/5 — Doesn't work on Firefox

*2025-12-01, version 7.9.0*

It works excellent on Safari and Chrome, but I cannot find a way to make it work on Firefox. I've come to realize that the Cisdem AppCrypt doesn't work on firefox, well, I have to give up using Firefox in this situation, please fix this issue soon.

### 4/5 — A small bug by blocking myself

*2025-09-10, version 7.9.0*

I found a small bug with AppCrypt, it functions well on blocking websites. However,  it is easily to bypass AppCrypt by accessing System Settings, so that you have to lock System Settings. The problem is, what should I do when I need to change sytem settings?

### 5/5 — AppCrypt simply works

*2026-06-25, version 7.9.0*

"
I set it to lock my financial apps and Discord during work hours and it hasn't failed once. Dead simple to configure, lightweight, and the password recovery options are thoughtful. Highly recommended."

*2026-06-20, version 7.9.0*

Considering what it offers, AppCrypt is definitely worth it. Reliable, easy to use, and very practical.

### 5/5 — Reliable Outlook locker

*2026-03-17, version 7.9.0*

Great tool for protecting sensitive emails. With AppCrypt, I can easily lock Microsoft Outlook with a password so no one can access it without permission.

### 5/5 — Useful website blocking

*2026-03-17, version 7.9.0*

I installed AppCrypt on my daughter's Mac to protect her from harmful websites, it is kind of useful.

### 5/5 — Reliable and straightforward.

*2026-03-04, version 7.9.0*

The whole point I used this app is being able to protect certain apps or keep certain restrictions.  No bloat, just solid app locking.

### 5/5 — Works great for website blocking

*2026-03-01, version 7.9.0*

I run AppCrypt with full website blocking and with only a couple of whitelisted sites which has worked great. Thanks!
