Weird

Helpful but I deleted for a trip - made me watch a 10 min infomercial to get back in and then wouldn’t let me restore my purchase. Buggy and a little awkward but a good concept.

Bonne idée mais…

Presque 10€ par mois pour un opale « améliorée » c’est ridicule et trop cher

Great concept too much money

Got really excited but then got hit with a paywall, not even a free trial.

Used to be a decent app

This used to be a great app for students. Especially when there was a free plan for students to focus on their work and get it done. However, it looks like times have changed. There is no more free plan than as soon as you get done analyzing the questions that ask you for micro transactions. I understood the main goal of this app was to help students. Get discounts because poor students/college kids can’t afford the world.

Expensive

Made me go through a planning system for 15 minutes then told me I have to pay £30. What a waste of my time.

Paid

Makes you do a survey for a plan only to tell you right at the very end that it costs money. At least make it obvious from the start if it’s paid so I don’t waste my time.

Terrible support team

I’ve had to spend a lot of money on the premium option right, because they don’t have a trial plan. In my app has had heaps of problems, and not been working properly. I have tried contacting them several times however they won’t even respond. Really unhappy and I would love my money back

Very misleading

Don’t make me build a plan and spend time on the app for 20 minutes without even showing the pricing options. I don’t want to give you seven dollars a week to get me off my phone. That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen. Ai slop app

Cost Money

One more app that sucks money from you. Too bad I didn’t know that until after I filled everything out.

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

I hate that they don’t do free trial period and now I see why. I paid for the yearly subscription cause I really liked the idea of it but the app doesn’t even function properly. I chose to block apps after 4 hours of use and it randomly blocks it after over 8-9 hours and all you have to do it open their app again and boom all the apps are unlocked. No need to do any activity. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

It works!

I still haven’t figured out what I have to do to unlock the apps, but it’s working because the app is so confusing that I just exit after 30 seconds of trying to figure it out. I haven’t been on social media for a week now.

Privacy intrusion

Too rigid. Im not sending this app a photo of the work that I am doing every time…it’s confidential. Also not showing myself working out meditating etc. It’s too intrusive. Also don’t need all the silly AI remarks when I show a corner of my screen where I am in fact working but from home so it tries to roast me bc there is a sofa in the distance. Annoying

Response from developer

Hey, thanks for the honest feedback and sorry this felt intrusive. That’s definitely not the experience we want people to have. Just to clarify a bit: photos are only used for background context so the AI can understand what’s happening in the moment, they aren’t stored, shared, or used for anything outside of that flow. That said, we totally get that even then, asking for photos can feel uncomfortable or unnecessary, especially when your work is confidential. The AI feedback is also meant to be light and motivating, not annoying or unfair. Clearly it missed the mark here, and the “roasting” based on small details like a sofa isn’t helpful at all. That’s on us. We’re actively improving both the flexibility of the system and how the AI responds, including giving users more control over when photos are used and how the feedback behaves. Really appreciate you calling this out, it genuinely helps us make the app better. If you’re open to it, feel free to reach out in-app or via support with more specifics - we do read it all.

Great

Honestly I though it was going to be just another app that you had to pay for a subscription but actually you don’t and I think it’s pretty cool
