### 4/5 — good but needs another feature

*2026-04-12*

Its a really good app, beautiful design et cetera. Points system and scoring is cool. Runs well, no paywall. My only feedback that would turn it to a really great app is adding schedules, because currently you can only block in the moment and not in advance (e.g. Fridays from 9-5 for work). Opening the app and turning it on kinda only relies on willpower instead of preplanning and blocking. Other than that, great simple app with no unnecessaries, would reccomend!

### 5/5 — App Blocker

*2025-11-06*

This is the best app blocker on the App Store! It reduces my screen time and blocks apps when I need it to. Not only does it reduce my screen time, but helps me focus on day to day tasks by blocking distracting apps like instagram. If you’re looking for a good app blocker or an app to reduce screen time, this is the app for you

### 2/5 — Maha

### 5/5 — 😱

*2025-09-07*

I really had no idea how effective this app would be , my screen time went from 10-12 hours per day to 5-7 in one week of using this app!  it’s super user friendly and easy to navigate. Totally worth it !

### 5/5 — I can’t believe this, I mean it seems fairly new tho so maybe it’s a bug 😭😭😭

*2025-09-06*

It was all working fine in the beginning 3-4 days but then it logged me out of my account and took me back to the main page where you join the subscription and has been liked in that page since! And I’ve already paid the yearly subscription but here is no way to restore the purchase😭😭  and even pressing the “become a breakrr” but doesn’t take you anywhere I can’t believe I paid all that money 😭😭😭😭 I’m just a uni student trying to be self disciplined. I really can’t believe this.. I hope it’s a bug!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback! Sorry you to hear you had this experience - please email me at nick@breakrrapp.com. It's just an issue with how Apple manages subscriptions sometimes, but it's easy to fix! Please reach out to me and I'll make sure you're taken care of!

### 4/5 — I will use it
