Great

It’s all in the name

App really helps limit and even stop certain phone usage. My kids and I use features within the app to compete with each other. The app is a great tool, what will you use your new found time for? What will you be present for?

Great

I love it! It really made a difference during the trial but the paid version is too expensive for me

Only 3 days in and love it so far.

I’ve found it very helpful, it’s the first thing that actually seems like it will work for me longterm.

This actually works

I am a tough case when it comes to habit control. Part of me rebels against it and questions the purpose of denying myself some “down time”. Those rebellious thoughts often lead to wasted hours and hours on social media! This app finally really puts up a fight on my behalf. I tried other apps but this one really makes it difficult to fall into old habits. Amazing product for sure! I highly recommend it!
