Digital Reset

This app has given me so much time back in my day. The blocking feature is simple and I like that I can set a time and not have to worry about it. It’s also clever in how its designed in a retro way making it feel like you’ve gone back in time in more ways than one. Highly recommend for anyone that is trying to cut back on screen time!!

Cool app that takes you back to the simplicity of the 90’s

Love this app and how it helps me focus and be more present during the day and social occasions. Great added touch to sharpen your mind while in a session if you are bored and need to take your mind off the timer where you can play a game and distract yourself from the phone! Highly recommended!

Genius App Idea, with no Drama

This app has helped me detox, from excessive screen time and distractions. Unlike other apps, I have full control over the time spent going back to 1999 mode. From 5 minutes to 24 hours, this is app makes it intuitive and easy to get my productivity and time back! The Easter Egg surprise is a nice touch! Thank you.

Thanks Yuri for the great feedback!

Helped me to kick my habit of doom scrolling!

I was able to use this app to limit advanced features in my phone and bring it back to the functionality of just a simple phone so that I could stop doom scrolling. Love this app.
