Was excited to read stories/ articles/ even GPT-generated text about an assortment of topics. Keep grinding, your achievements thus far are nothing short of impressive! ### 4/5 — Great *2024-11-26* Absolutely love the idea and how it’s so encouraging but it is a little difficult to use and the colours are dull ### 4/5 — a good portion of interests are locked behind a paywall *2024-10-25* The idea for this app is amazing, although a lot of the more popular and/or well known interests are locked behind a paywall, one thing that Dev did not do which I really appreciate his luck some of the more niche hobbies behind said paywall. It’s a good app and it’s completely functional if you don’t pay. ### 2/5 — Requires paid subscription *2024-10-15, version 5.7* I had high expectations, and thought this app would be a fun way to do more things that I love instead of just consuming media, but it requires a subscription to access a lot of the “curiosities”, and CONSTANTLY brings up the subscription page to try to get you to sign up. There are better ways to make time for my hobbies; I definitely do not recommend :( ### 3/5 — I like it, but most/part of the app should be free. *2024-10-10* I like the idea, I saw it on instagram while I was scrolling and thinking about how I wanna engage more in life anyways. I checked it out, looks nice and is smooth but then I can’t go any further without some payment or use one feature for a day. I understand why it’s there but I also feel like if your trying to engage people into your app then make it more accessible so they can see the basics of it and then pay more if they want more. Also if part/most of your app was free even for those who don’t pay you would be making an impact and helping people learn new things which seems like the idea, that’s my input on this app ### 4/5 — Good but so many emails *2024-10-09* I really like this app it gives me new things to do but do you think it could send me less emails I’ve already gotten 3 in two days. ### 2/5 — Terrible Exectution *2024-10-03, version 5.7* Great idea once again bogged down with guilt shaming pop ups to subscribe to the paid tier, requiring sign in, trials, etc etc etc. For such a genuine intention, way too much “pay me”. ### 4/5 — Good *2024-09-30* My only problem so far has been I think some of links are wrong. For example, I’d click on a link the music plan and it would take me to a kayaking video. Other than that I am loving it so far :) ### 4/5 — Great But *2024-09-28* I think this is a great thing but I can’t afford the price. I understand that as a sort of startup you need the money. But understand that this will turn a lot of people away, especially the people who need it most, kids. Again, really like what you’re doing. But lower the price whenever and however you can. ### 3/5 — Seems good but I won’t know *2024-09-28, version 5.7* Wish I knew it was going to cost money. Kind of got my hopes up. ### 2/5 — Kinda unusable *2024-09-26, version 5.7* So mine keeps saying that it’ll give me a credit every 20 hours but it isn’t. So I can’t make any plans at all. I do like the concept and i do scroll on the list for ideas of what to do and I still like the idea but I just wish I could actually use the app ### 3/5 — It’s a good app *2024-08-17, version 5.3* I like the main idea of the app, but you can’t quite do much, since it requires you to pay for a subscription to unlock the main features of the app. The only thing you can pretty much do is save/favourite. ### 2/5 — 🤷🏼‍♀️ *2024-08-15, version 5.3* Should be free like social media, the whole app was confusing to navigate and was getting annoying with the amount of times the premium ad popped up. Also hard to find topics, you have to be awfully specific on what you want. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Originally good but recent updates have made it worse *2025-03-13* Update: DO NOT BUY LIFETIME PREMIUM THE APP WILL NOT HONOR IT This app was a brilliant idea and one of the best features was being able to submit a specific time limit in which to focus on a new topic. That way it was possible to adjust my goals to the time I had available and keep things flexible. Now, although I had paid for the lifetime benefit of the app months ago, that feature has been removed. Moreover, the app just repeatedly generates the same steps when creating plans (regardless of difficulty level, as in the previous version, so I can’t even adjust the activities to my skill level anymore). While some user interface components have improved, the app has generally become worse over time and is not worth paying for. ### 1/5 — So bad *2024-12-04* Can’t do anything without some stupid ad popping up ### 1/5 — Originally good but recent updates have made it worse *2024-10-02* This app was a brilliant idea and one of the best features was being able to submit a specific time limit in which to focus on a new topic. That way it was possible to adjust my goals to the time I had available and keep things flexible.

While some user interface components have improved, the app has generally become worse over time and is not worth paying for. ### 1/5 — Caution - Cancelled but still charged! *2024-10-01, version 5.7* I downloaded this and signed up for the weekly subscription to try. Didn’t use it, wasn’t my thing. I cancelled my subscription well ahead of renewal on my Apple account. Yet I find myself still charged??? Either Apple is being weird or the permissions on this app are funky. Regardless it’s not great. I caution anyone thinking of downloading this. I’m now going through the every step I can think of to ensure this app is no longer anywhere in my phone. ### 1/5 — Would not recommend at all, sorry *2024-09-23* It’s like 120 megabytes and has paywalls everywhere which is insane when it’s just a list of things that perplexity or any AI hooked up to internet can do much better. ### 1/5 — Did not get a chance to use this app *2024-09-22* The free version provides 1 plan/day. Upon downloading the app, I accidentally created a plan for a topic that I didn’t want. So my 1 free plan of the day was gone. It’s been more than 24 hours now and I’m still not getting the chance to plan another, even after I deleted the first plan. I tried reinstalling, but to no avail. **Developer response:** Check the profile page to claim free credits, its a button that looks like a gift icon! ALSO: email jack@frikit.net and i will make sure you can create plans again with credits so sorry for the trouble increasing free credits ++ ### 1/5 — Super Basic App, false advertising *2024-09-20* This app markets itself as some sort of revolutionary way to stop scrolling, but it’s literally just a list of activites you can do other than scrolling listed on a single UI. Do not waste your time here, nothing special! **Developer response:** we have currated over 1000 plans manually for each topic! we think that is pretty special no? ### 1/5 — Why *2024-09-15, version 5.6* When setting up the app, I scrolled for so long trying to find anything related to motorsports in general, and anything motorsport related I have to pay for. But stuff like “Andrew Huberman morning routine” is free. Uninstalling ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-07-25, version 5.3* The custom video generation doesn’t work and this basically is a fancy todo app. Every topic I try to see it fails to generate a video. ### 1/5 — Not a good app *2024-07-16, version 5.1* It feels so laggy and the overall experience is bad, tried it for a couple of days and it was not good ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app, clean UI *2024-12-26, version 5.7* Really enjoyed using the app. It’s well made, has a beautiful UI and really helps to focus on more meaningful aspects of life again than doomscrolling :) ### 5/5 — Bug *2024-11-08* Honestly really cool app, but the swipe right just doesn’t seem to work. ### 5/5 — Worth It! *2024-10-30* I knew this app from the very beginning would help me focus on growing into the person I know I want to be. It’s filled with so many ideas of knowledge that I wouldn’t even have thought about learning and now I get to track my growth while showing myself that I don’t have to have mental limits. ### 5/5 — Feed back from Karla💕 *2024-10-09* Hi I love the app so far but I think mabye make something a little more attractive like I noticed when I went to look for a make up ideas it showed me some videos or simple make up tutorials. Maybe it also can give like say for the make up what bands you should and should not use like say dirt track riding mabye like show what to do to get into it and mabye like give a little more in depth idea but none the less your doing amazing and do not give up thank you 💕💕 ### 5/5 — So helpful *2024-10-09* I’ve been looking for a way to help me with my passions and this app does just that 10/10 recommend ### 5/5 — ;) *2024-10-05* This app has sooo much potential. I just scrolled through your tik toks (ironic) and saw that you were making this app by yourself (I think). I downloaded it and it seriously did not disappoint. The design, animations and overall feel of the app is just amazing. I genuinely feel that this app could change ppls mindsets and ideas towards social media. Could use a few more visuals but i love your idea :) ### 5/5 — 10/10! *2024-10-04, version 5.7* I’ve discovered the app through Tiktok. Spending about 5-7 hours on social media each day is so addictive. This app has helped me get better with my habits and has helped me embrace new hobbies i’ve never thought i’d ever do like manga drawing! 😭 ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-08-27* I’ve been following the creator of the app for a while now. I downloaded it around the first few weeks of launch and love seeing its development. The concept is great, but the premium subscription albeit helpful to the creator is quite much. But still a lot of the app is available for free. Jack being an indie developer has already done a lot and this app can help with a social media addiction. The app isn’t perfect, but still incredible nonetheless **Developer response:** thank you so much my friend for the kind words and honesty ### 5/5 — Really good, just one small app error *2024-08-14, version 5.3* This seems like a really good app and I think it’ll make it a bit easier to start some new hobbies I want to learn like rollerskating and cycling without being too overwhelmed because of the simplified list of the steps :-) I just want to let you know, when I tried to stop looking at my plan and look at other options, I swiped across the screen from the left like you would in safari to go back a page and it took me back to the page talking about screen time and things (I kind of skipped past it so I can’t remember what it said lol but it’s one of the first few pages you go through when you download the app), and I couldn’t tap the button or anything to get past and had to reload the app. I’m not sure if this would happen again when you reload the app since I need to wait 20 hours to get more tokens but I thought I’d let you guys know it gets you stuck there since this is a pretty well thought app and I want to see it get appreciated!! ### 5/5 — really great idea *2024-07-30, version 5.3* the concept is amazing and it really well thought through --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
