Fun

Very cool and innovative

Just chill

I feel better about myself

You need to pay to acces the app

Not enough options

Love this but I’d like to have other things to spend my coins on, like customizing my character or being in a boss fight. I feel like that would make it much more enjoyable.

Also, the Quests aren’t customizable enough and don’t offer things that are very quick like brushing teeth or taking a shower. That would be cool so I could stick to my morning routines

Push-up tracker broken

The concept and idea behind is great but the push-up tracker didn’t work for me

I love it

Its a pretty cool way to keep me from playing games all day and doomscrolling. one thing i think would improve this would be an option for more quests to complete before screen time is earned. I find myself setting simple quests that feel too easy and would like a bit more of a challenge not just to get off my phone but to do more outside of my screen.

Superb and life changing!

This app is just awesome. It has some awesome features to do instead of doomscrolling and has given me some great ideas for some hobbies.

This Summer, I have gotten much healthier mentally, physically, and spiritually thanks to Journey and I am very excited with future new features!

Blocked all my apps and couldn’t delete it

I downloaded after seeing an instagram ad for it. I was initially hopeful. All was well until I gave it access to my screen time. Then I hit an unexpected paywall. Then the app blocked all of my social media. And it wouldn’t let me delete it without my parents approval. Awful

Good app but…

Functionality issues- the camera verification for the main quest of the day never works, which is a pretty big feature to always be offline on an expensive paid for app…

Photo verification unavailable

Great app for what it does. I enjoy it but why the photo verification not working?

Guter Ansatz

Vom Prinzip her guter Ansatz. Schlichtes Design und tut was es soll.
Leider kann man die Quests seit geraumer Zeit nicht mehr mit einem Foto verifizieren, so dass eine essenzielle Funktion der App momentan nicht funktionstüchtig ist und etwas den Spaß nimmt. Hier muss dringend gepatcht werden.

Refund

Their customer support was so friendly and easy to work with. The app crashed for a little bit and they offered me a full refund. The style of the app is amazing 100/10 would recommend.

The best game

This game help calm me down and not miss out on more important stuff

Nice app

It still has a few things that need to be fixed and some bugs like the photo verification being unavailable but it is great other than the few bugs and small issues

Not actually free

Doesn’t let you use the app without paying and refuses to not let you pay. Signing up is a waste of time 💀

Absolute lifesaver

Most screen time apps haven’t really worked for me, but this app has really helped me stop scrolling and my screen time has dropped by almost 3 hours. Highly recommend to anyone who is trying to be more productive!

Josias

It has helped me so much

Annoying

It blocked all my apps and it makes me pay to use it and when I try to delete it it will not let me delete it.

i hate it

i was gonna try it out without knowing you have to pay and i didn’t even set it up all the way and it was asking for a payment so i was like whatever and i couldn’t delete it due to parental controls and when i tried to go on snapchat or tiktok i couldn’t bc of the stupid app and plus i didn’t even sign up all the way and it block all my apps so know im waiting for my mom to delete off her phone THANKS A LOT

Response from developer

Hey Elona, very sorry about this. We never considered this specific scenario where you would be unable to delete the app with parental controls on, so can totally understand why this is frustrating. We’re working on a fix so this never happens again.

This is a scam

So I got this app thinking that it was gonna work, but then it said I have to pay for it and by the time i realize it was saying, I need to pay for it already locked all my apps so now I can’t get into my apps, so frick this app and don’t get it if you don’t wanna pay

Response from developer

Completely understand your frustration here, you can simply just delete the app if you no longer want it to block anything. We’re not trying to scam you, since this is just a core part of its features and we require payment to maintain the API and development costs for the app. Have a good one!
