Loved it - please bring back the pause feature
Originally, an amazing app - but removing the pause feature has made it almost unusable for me.
I used to get so much benefit from Brainrot. Being able to pause a block for five minutes was incredibly useful. Since that option was removed, temporarily accessing a blocked app means manually turning blocks off and back on, which is far too time-consuming.
The UI is cute, but the app is also glitchy. In my experience, the home screen widget sometimes appears to activate a block without actually blocking the apps.
I emailed the development team about bringing back the pause feature, but they couldn’t give me an answer about whether or when it might return. The feedback and feature request portal also seems to go unanswered.
Brainrot team, if you’re reading this: please bring back the five-minute pause and fix the blocking glitches. This app was genuinely helpful, which makes its current state especially disappointing. With those fixes, it could be fantastic again.

Stupid app
Pay wall just to reduce screen time there many more free apps people open source too just ask ChatGPT it will find it for you

Don’t install this app
They don’t even let you try it for free even a little bit, all they want is money , i find it really stupid when a expects you to pay money when they don’t even let you try it for a single time
UNDISCLOSED PAID FOR
you get right into the whole spiel before they tell you it’s a subscription based product. Awful! I’m sure it’s a brilliant concept but not disclosing a subscription based service is poor
do I really have to pay?
why do I have to pay to do this gang? I thought this was free
Not free
I’m tired of apps advertising as free and then getting you to do a little quiz at the start to build a plan, and then surprise surprise, there’s not even a basic free model you can use within the app, it’s all paid. Garbage
Makes u pay lol
Dont waste ur time downloading this if u dont want to pay
Paid app no free trial
Tittle says for itself. Good promise, horribly developed
Não coloquei fé, mas funciona
No início eu estava duvidando que algo “bobinho” assim daria certo, mas incrivelmente funcionou. Valeu cada centavo pagar o plano anual!
Good concept, poor execution
At first I really liked this app, I thought it was great but as time went on I discovered how buggy and hard to use is. I have it set for 2 hours a day screen time plus it closed from 6am-11am but sometimes it is unlocked during that time and most of the time it just stays locked all day (only on my phone for like 15 minutes total not even on the restricted apps). So, fine, whatever I can deal with that by unlocking it using the “ask brain for permission” function EXCEPT I click something 30 minutes and it closes after 10 (not in my imagination, in real, LINEAR time). It’s really a shame because I spent money to use this app and find it somewhat helpful but it has become so inconsistent with locking apps that I just don’t know what to expect. 🤷♀️

Subscription
It costs money
Instant delete
Far far far too many invasive questions at the onboarding stage then a paywall you can’t get past. I’ve not even tried the app to see if it is any good and you’re asking me for money and my whole life history. If we’ve downloaded the app we’ve got past the hard part, we believe the app is a solution to our problem, you don’t need to analyse us and tell us how many years we’d get back by subscribing. Just let us try the app and put it through its paces, if it’s genuinely any good it’ll be a no brainer and I’d happily pay and share it with my friends. As it is - instant delete from me.

Please stop charging me
I really liked the app, it helped me use the blocker on my phone better and actually listen to it, but now I would like you to stop charging me. I have sent an email, I’ve deleted the app, I’ve cancelled the subscription and I’m still getting charged. Please stop.
endlich kein brainrot mehr
ich hab sonst manchmal 3 stunden am stück gedoomscrollt, was mich echt genervt hat. jetzt hab ich das gefühl, ich hab einen kloinen froind, der auf mich aufpasst :) man hinterfragt, ob man es wirklich braucht grade und das alleine ist schonmal gut. man wählt die zeit aus und wird erinnert wenn diese zeit vorbei ist. den focusmode find ich auch toll. danke für diese app! sehr süß gemacht und das geld wert :)

Good don’t have money
I want to do it so bad but I do not have the money
Hehe
I like that it talks you with a FaceTime, but I think that it should have a facial feature that makes you actually like makes you actually do the breeding exercises and I want to have a hour option because I mean, I might be too long but like still like an hour and also you should be able to change it for on weekends. You have more time. One more thing is it should be better so it should take more time for you to get back on the screen so if you say yes, I really do. It’s another question. Yes, I really do another question yes, I really do another question

Literally can’t use if you don’t pay
Terrible! You can’t use or even have seven days to explore the app for free
Uninstalled. It has a paywall to even start using the app lol
They ask you a bunch of questions and then hit you with a paywall before even trying out any of the features.
Needs Work
I like the app, but it has stopped working. Unless I go into the Brainrot app, it will not block apps when I have it scheduled to do so. I also have it as a widget on my phone. I thought the brain health would show on the widget, but the brain guy just stays the same and doesn’t actually change on my widget reflecting the brain guys appearance in the actual app. My biggest issue is paying for a subscription that doesn’t work. When it did work at first it was great. I definitely will not recommend this to anyone or renew my subscription because it won’t actually block my apps unless I go into the app first, which I shouldn’t have to do. I think if they fixed some of these bugs it has potential.
