Doesn’t work

Paid the years subscription and it doesn’t do anything - I can still scroll as normal and the app won’t be blocked once the screen time limit is reached or even a reminder. Don’t waste ur money

Impenetrable paywall.

It’s pretty scummy locking the entire app behind a paywall AFTER making you waste your time customising it and sharing your personal information. NO functions of the app are usable without paying and it doesn’t even tell you that until you’ve already shared your information with it. You’re better off just using the Screen Time function.

Misleading

While signing up I was expecting to get a easy to use app but after finishing it. The app tries to make you pay to “reclaim” your time. Of course I want to reclaim my time but for 30 bucks I rather find a better app!

Why roblox?

Every single time I chat with the AI to unblock the app I want to use, it just gives me time for roblox. I have tried restarting the AI and everything but I still only get time for roblox.

Doesn’t tell you that the app costs money

The app seems really good and thoughtfully designed but as you go through setting up the app, which really takes a bit of time, it kind of gaslights you into thinking it’s free until your done and can’t continue without a monthly plan. I get the concept that more people are prone to buy it that way but from the customers perspective it’s really just frustrating.

Payment

Why do we need to pay for an app that helps us improve in life. This causes people to download the app to continue doomscrolling again

Price

This app being labeled “free” is honestly misleading. You can download it for free, sure — but the second you actually try to use the important features, everything is locked behind a subscription. That’s not really free.

What’s the point of advertising a screen time app as free if basic tools that people actually need require paying every month? Especially for parents or teens trying to manage screen time, it feels frustrating to get excited about an app just to hit a paywall immediately.

The app itself might work fine, but the pricing setup ruins the experience. If almost every useful feature needs premium, they should just be upfront and call it a paid app with a trial instead of pretending it’s free.

Terrible customer service

The first time I downloaded this app, I thought it was a free trial and I decided to see how it would work on me to “reclaim” my time. The mindfulness was very helpful, but sometimes I needed more time so you could easily lie and text the ai that you’d reply to a message and instantly get access. I do not recommend this app for people with long term social media addiction. Then I immediately cancel after paying because I wanted a preview and I decide to email them with no reply after three weeks. I still want a refund!!!!

Needs money

Tricks you into thinking that you can use it it you can’t even do anything unless you pay for it

could be good but it doesn’t even work

im being too generous with 2 stars the app doesn’t even work I’ve been doomscrolling for a while and it will not lock the app even tho I’ve blocked it? Thank God I brought the free trial instead of actually paying that would’ve been a waste of money.

disappointing

although the concept seems good, go on an app, have your coach talk you into if it’s important going into that bla bla bla, you have to pay, i’d be fine with not paying and having some features removed, but this is a total cash grab.
