Advice required

Hi,

Trust you are great.

I used to love and use this app all the time. I just bought the yearly membership, and the app is crashing every single time I open it. Is the app becoming obsolete with lack of updates, or? Why is this happening? There is nothing else like it on the market and an objectively great app- it just doesn’t work and I would like it too.

Great if it worked

Don’t get me wrong, DTCH’s concept is great, except it doesn’t work. I’ve tested it, it won’t vibrate. It also randomly “re-engages” and then when I check the DTCH app, it shows my report.

I don’t know what’s happening, please fix this.

Needs improvement. It’s good but not yet great

This app has helped me to stop using my phone with the vibration notification when I go pick it up. It somehow tells my brain to stop in my tracks and let go of the phone. The only thing with it is that, it works only in the beginning. Later in the day when I go pick up my phone and I find myself in the Lock Screen or in the actual screen itself where the apps are it no longer vibrates. I have to go manually and turn it on again which I have found to be tidious. If somehow it would manage to always stay on until I manually turn it off I would change my rating to 4 stars. Because of this problem I may not subscribe . I have looked everywhere for an app similar like this but I haven’t found it. As far as I know it’s the only one of its kind. Please update it because the concept is there it just needs a little improvement here and there. That’s all.

Great idea if it worked

The phone doesn’t vibrate when you pick it up and it’s not an easy to use app, the design mimics the apple-like user friendly aesthetic without the intuitive interface

Fantastic idea but battery life

Love this approach. Really novel and with enough interruption to change behaviour.

Sadly the battery drain – if you're using it frequently - is just too great.

Would also be nice to have a way to 'end' the sessions automatically if they started automatically, eg. if I haven't touched my phone for an hour then would be nice to allow some more time before nudging me again.
