10/10

Really changed my life for the better. My screen time has changed drastically… I used to use apps like Opal which blocked entire apps and caused many problems for me. but this is something different and I believe everyone should give it a go. I was hesitant at first but once I got used to it, it helped so much!

UPDATE: The new Snapchat notifications are amazing! literally a life changer

Payment?

Paying for an app that literally just blocks stuff is crazy

Unusable

Came to prevent myself from scrolljng not to brick my social media. I use IG and youtube for business purposes so I try to keep myself focused, but I locked myself out hard for a week now I can’t post anything. YouTube barely works along with Instagram. Very frustrating to navigate and it seems like he got way worse this past week.

Exceptional concept

This app has significantly impacted my life. I figured out that the chief issue in my life was scrolling endlessly for hours on end. This app truly did help me regain control of my life and improve my mental health as a whole. definitely recommended to those who struggle with screen time.

Truly amazing

Genuinely improved my screen time. Amazing app!

it’s perfect for people who want to stay in contact with friends while also being productive. I love the fact they added Snapchat now as I used to hate scrolling on spotlight. It shocked me because even notifications work too! Which I didn’t think it would be possible.

Dernière version

Très bonne mise a jour, j’avais un peu lâché feather car je trouvais l’app pas très pratique et ses fonctionnalités étaient trop limitées, les notifications ne se recevaient pas,… maintenant plus aucun problème on peut l’utiliser totalement indépendamment d’insta sans soucis et remplis ses promesses parfaitement

Not at all worth it

App runs horribly, much too expensive (very much regret spending any money on this). Don’t get this app, just delete Instagram.

No free trial

I’m not going to spend $50 on something if I don’t know it for sure works. Make a week free trial or something

It has potential

Great idea, it does NOT alter your actual app. It gives you a second app through feather (which if you have subscriptions like YouTube, doesn’t really work). And the setup is a pain

meh

overpriced and glitchy. needs a lot of work. does not run ig very well - slow and oftentimes the screen is non responsive. not the worst ever, but im glad i didn’t pay for the year long subscription, probably will not use

Great concept but lots of room to improve

There were tons of data farming questions in the beginning that you KNOW had nothing to do with the end result. Once in, the concept feels exactly like what I was hoping for. I’m so glad it exists. I can truly see this concept working for me long term because it strikes a happy medium instead of the “all or nothing” approach of other apps. It gives me just enough of a dopamine kick to not entirely redownload the apps I mindlessly scroll on, while at the same time removing the most addictive parts of it that allow it to delete hours of my life. But it doesn’t take long to realize there are tons of bugs. It takes so long to produce content when scrolling. Can’t access any saved posts. Tons of actions bring me back to homepage unexpectedly. In concept, it seems they are attempting to get rid of reels by essentially recreating the app inside of their own app. So I understand that there is a lot of work that goes in behind it. All I’m saying is that I really hope they figure it out because at this point the app is not sustainable.. but if they get it to a point of good health I can see this changing my life. TLDR: not happy but rooting for them!

False marketing

The app claims 4.9 star reviews from 200k plus user but they barely have 20 reviews which are all mostly 1 star

10/10 App!

I cannot believe this exists, amazing and well worth it.

Honest review it’s a life changer

I’m rating it 5 stars because it really helps u stay away from it social media or doomscrolling, I used to doomscroll so much without realising and then I tried this app and now I only use it to check what my friends send me, 99% of the time I reach the end of my feed and do something else worth my time lol so it’s really good, I also ended up deleting the original apps so now I only use this, it’s slightly laggy sometimes but you wouldn’t really notice it and I also wish they could add more social media’s like Facebook or snapchat if it’s possible

Response from developer

Thank you for the amazing review! We are planning on adding a major update very soon to address bugs and new platforms including Facebook, snapchat and a few others. We are happy to see our app has helped you!

Unresolved billing issue

Emailed support about a billing issue and I have yet to hear back from them.

Scam

Do not spend your money on this slop. I should’ve known better

Love this app!

This app is amazing

Fake app, stay away!

Does not work! It’s fake and Apple does not process a refund for this one after. Stay away.

Sketchy app w shady devs

Tried app, asked me a ton of data farming questions, took forever to get through to the app and then got a paywall. Super disappointing but I tired it at least expecting the app to work but not only is it insanely slow, basically unusable but it also bricked my phone causing it to overheat several times to dangerous levels. Super concerning, I wrote a previous review and the devs took it down which I feel says enough about the devs. Please dont risk it, I would hate to even think about where my ig accounts info may have been leaked.
