Great app for intentional phone usage

GREAT IDEA AND IT WORKS

I’ve needed something to get me off these social apps when I want to disassociate from real life. This app works flawlessly. It has features like; a friend has control to let me use an app, and also when I really want to use an app, it makes you go through extra steps so you have to really think about using it. Love this app!

Life changing!!

This app has genuinely changed the way I use my phone. I love the intentional pause before opening social media - it gives me just enough time to ask myself whether I actually want to open the app or if I’m just doing it out of habit.

The small moment of intentionality has helped me stop mindlessly opening social media and getting sucked into hours of doomscrolling. I feel so much more in control of my screen time and much more intentional with how I spend my time.

Side note: I also LOVE the social aspect of the app! It makes the experience feel less like I’m trying to “quit” social media, and more like I’m building healthier habits alongside my friends. It’s such a simple concept but it’s made such a huge difference for me!!! Highly highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Best Screen Time App

I’ve used a handful of different apps in the past for limiting screen time, but always felt they limit functions behind paywalls. LightScroll offers the most controls and options that let you customize the app to work best for you. Would highly recommended to anyone looking for an upgrade to the native Apple screen time or other apps!
