User reviews

Well done

Works simpler and better than I would have expected.
An easy way to block harmful effects of social media without having to worry about what you’d lose canceling.

Excellent

Does exactly what it says - I can enjoy YouTube again without getting sucked into shorts. Very happy and excellent value for money.

Good App for blocking, but instagram doesn’t work

Great app for blocking most things, But it fails to block suggested posts on instagram. The whole idea for me wanting this app is to prevent endlessly scrolling content. These suggested posts are 90% reels.

Buggy

Some weeks it works well, other weeks functions I’ve blocked appear which is annoying since I’ve paid for the app

Inconsistent

It use to work great, but now it only blocks the Instagram feed sometimes. Sometimes it blocks it. Often it doesn’t.
