More time for life

A super simple app that saves you time for what really matters in life…

Needs some improvements

This app would be better if it worked with larger text sizes. I had to lower my settings just to navigate around the app which is annoying. It also needs some sort of tutorial or help menu. Idk how to get started or what the best practices are

Super simpel und guter Blocker mit der QR Scan Funktion 👍👍👍

Kann ich weiterempfehlen und die App sollte als erster Treffer im App Store erscheinen!!!!!!

Top App

Super Hilfreiche App, wenn man seine Screentime wirklich mal in den Griff bekommen will. Bildschirmzeit Blocker, Screentime. Auch besser als Opal und Brick, da es beide Vorteile vereint

Beste App

Ich nutze Offtime jetzt seit einigen Wochen und bin wirklich begeistert. Die App hilft mir dabei, mein Smartphone-Verhalten deutlich bewusster zu steuern. Besonders gut gefällt mir, wie einfach sich individuelle „Offtime-Phasen“ planen lassen. Während dieser Zeiten werden nur die Apps und Kontakte zugelassen, die ich wirklich brauche – der Rest bleibt gesperrt.

Seit ich Offtime verwende, habe ich das Gefühl, wieder mehr Kontrolle über meine Zeit zu haben. Ich schaue weniger auf Social Media, konzentriere mich besser auf meine Arbeit und kann abends endlich richtig abschalten. Die Statistiken sind übersichtlich und zeigen klar, welche Apps mich am meisten ablenken.
