Extremely useful

This app is extremely helpful in controlling my phone usage. Especially during studying and other times of focus it helps tremendously.

Study Buddy

Really helpful study app for staying focused. I like that it blocks distracting apps while I’m working, and the 5-minute mind break games every 30 minutes are a nice reset without completely derailing my focus. It makes studying feel a lot more manageable and keeps me off my phone when I need to lock in.

Great App

This is a great app for studying for those annoying tests. It has even helped me stay locked in on other productive things I want to do throughout the day. Highly recommend it, especially since it doesn’t feel like you are trapped as you set your own goals.
