### 5/5 — I don’t like how my phone has gotten slow, but I do like having money

*2026-06-14*

I wanna start by saying that a lot of people point out it does mess up the functionality of the phone, but I also wanna say that the first day really screwed up my phone but I waited it out and it seemed like as the app got to know what things were. I started working correctly. I couldn’t even get into my banking app at first but I gave it a day and now everything works properly and things are speeding up again any problems that I went through that day to I’ve been going through with gambling by far. I noticed that I was starting to develop a real problem gambling. I couldn’t keep a cent  that I was making because I would immediately get on every gambling website. To try to win, and when I did win, I would just put it back in. It got to the point where I would make money and use the entire thing. I need in one day and I couldn’t take it anymore so I was reading the gambling responsible stuff on DraftKings and mentioned this app. I have blocked myself out for timeframe and amounts before, but if they’re a couple days. Change it and then take it off a couple days after that so I wanted something that was not gonna allow me to do that. As much as I regretted it after I did it because I do miss it. I don’t regret it at the same time weight has been lifted off my chest. I’m very grateful

**Developer response:** Hi jessebell26,

Thank you for your positive reviews.

Firstly - with regard to the slow down in the first few days - that was an issue with our servers that we've identified and corrected. If you have any further issues contact our support team at support@betblocker.org.

We'd also encourage you to click the lightbulb icon on our dashboard, to learn how you can make BetBlocker even stronger!

Thank you again, and we're really glad to hear how we're helping you :)

### 1/5 — Not great

*2026-06-10, version 1.42*

Messaged twice as since downloading the app loads of normal apps want load , eBay , workday , Amazon , sometimes face book and instagram , wish I hadn’t of put 6 months as can’t seem to contact them or don’t respond, has blocked gambling apps though which is what I wanted but would be nice for my phone to work as normal

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-07, version 1.42*

This app is horrible. It will make your phone essentially useless. Makes everything take 10x longer to load because it used a dns profile. It is also constantly running in the background slowing down your device even more. Find an alternative because this app is very poorly designed. Couldn’t even load my emails for over 15 minutes.

### 4/5 — Seems to do the job

*2026-06-06, version 1.42*

Blocks relevant apps from opening
Only thing is seems to slow down social media and reseller apps, maybe because of gambling ads etc

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2026-05-31, version 1.41*

Absolute rubbish! Downloaded, installed via VPN as per instructions. Typed in coral bookmakers, took me straight to the site! Terrible!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-05-30*

I downloaded this app and my iPhone  has been running slow . I can’t get it off my phone so my phone would work correctly.
