User reviews

Works brilliantly

Cannot fault this app, works fantastically to help cut down my screen time and I can select exactly what I want to limit. I did find the easiest level of the languages quite challenging as someone coming into Japanese with absolutely no experience, but that might just be a sign I need to use the app more!

So good

Such a great idea. Absolutely loving it.

If you could add schedules that would be great!

Response from developer

Thanks so much! Have added schedules to the latest release!

Clean app

There is French, giving 5 stars ;)

Fantastic for distractions

This app is great for people learning a language and who want to stop getting distracted by doom scrolling. Earning time to scroll by doing lessons feels like a video game and makes the little time spent scrolling not feel as guilty!

Time is on my side

WOW kept me right on track for learning and viewing!

Response from developer

Thank you! Hope you’re loving it!
