What's New in Impulse

1.5.2

September 1, 2026

Know exactly where you stand. When you've used up a limit, the screen now says so. The button reads "Limit reached" and closes the app — no more tapping something that quietly does nothing. We also fixed a bug that could leave a limit screen stuck with an unresponsive button until midnight. If that ever happened to you, updating clears it. Nothing to reconfigure.

Perfecta para concentrarse !

Funciona fatal

Hay muchos bugs en general, el bloqueo de apps no funciona, las bloquea para siempre incluso eliminando el bloqueo. Es poco intuitivo, hay que darle a guardar en todos lados y sino se borra la configuración. Ha durado menos de un dia en mi telefono. La app tiene buena pinta pero creo que la han lanzado demasiado pronto, aun le quedan meses de trabajo, es inusable.
