新uiが改悪だからどうにかしてほしい

新しいuiになってからバグが増え、時間制限を解除したはずなのにその後すぐに制限がかかったり、画面が固まったりしている。
そもそもこのuiになって使いやすくなったわけでもなく、個人的には完全に無意味な「ホームタブ」が追加されたせいでいちいち移動しないといけなくなった。さらに制限を解除するボタンの真下に早期終了ボタンがあるせいで制限をかける意味がほとんどない。
またui以外でも最近youtubeアプリに制限をかけてyoutube musicのサイトを常に許可に設定したのにもかかわらずサイトが開けない、ということもあった。
去年このアプリを入れた時はいい感じだったのに、使うに連れてどんどん使いづらくなってきている。

Mudou minha vida

Merecia 5 estrelas mas recentemente vem bugado bastante. As vezes os apps não bloqueiam, ou quando desbloqueio um app ele fica muito mais que 15 minutos aberto. Tirando isso é perfeito! Diminui muito meu tempo de tela! Eu uso a versão gratuita, e posso dizer com confiança pq vai fazer quase 1 ano que uso o Opal. É bem intuitivo, fácil de mexer e realmente diminui seu tempo de tela

App limits

I really like being able to set limits on my social apps. 15 minutes is all I want to spend on it a day and I like their notifications that come when you reached your limit. they actually helped me Take a breath and stop when I want to.

Amazing

Really good and can ban websites
