We’re really glad it’s helping you. Stay strong! The Bet Breaker Team ### 5/5 — Really works *2026-05-02* I unfortunately was not strong enough on my own to quit gambling and was in denial about it for a while. This app really works. I paid for the subscription which isn’t much considering how much I’ve spent gambling. Do it. You won’t regret it **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your powerful message Admitting that you need support already takes a huge amount of strength. We’re truly happy if the app can help you create a stronger barrier between you and gambling. Wishing you all the best on your journey > one day at a time 🙏 ### 5/5 — Good idea *2026-04-21* Check out all the features before you give up on it The creators are very responsive to any suggestions & criticism **Developer response:** Thanks so much for your support 🙏 We’re doing our best to build something that truly helps ; and we’re always listening. If you (or anyone else reading this) has ideas, feedback, or even criticism, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re building Bet Breaker with you, not just for you. All the best, Jerome ### 5/5 — Love this app *2026-02-19* As a gambling addiction that has been trying to quit for years - this is a very helpful tool. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for sharing this. Trying to quit for years takes courage and persistence, even when it doesn’t feel like it. We're really glad the app has been helpful to you. That’s exactly why we built it : not to judge, not to shame, but to give real support in the moments that matter most. Please keep going ### 2/5 — Meh *2025-11-28, version 2.0.0* Non funziona con tutti i browser o almeno non funziona con vpn a differenza di appblock e qualche altra che ho provato e in piu’ è tradotta abbastanza male sarebbe un’applicazione bellissima se bloccasse tutto cio che deriva dal gioco ovvero pop-up su qualsiasi sito e browser + bot di gioco su app come telegram e tante altre cose ### 5/5 — TRUE FREEDOM *2025-11-18* I will be honest, when I saw that this app didn’t have thousands of reviews, I was hesitant to even give it chance but WOW was I wrong. This app is a hidden gem if you want full freedom from a gambling addiction. There is a community of people that encourage each other to press on day by day. The app has accountability partners & abilities to permanently ban yourself from 50 online gambling apps & ban websites. I feel encouraged and hopeful to overcome this addiction after coming across this hidden gem. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your message! 🙏 Even though we have quite a few reviews for an app like this, many people still hesitate to leave one. That’s why we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience –> it means a lot to us and gives us huge motivation to keep improving the app. We have lots of exciting things coming soon and wish you all the best on your journey. Keep going! 💪 The Bet Breaker Team ### 5/5 — Good idea *2025-11-17* Check out all the features before you give up on it The creators are very responsive to any suggestions & criticism **Developer response:** Thanks so much for your support 🙏 We’re doing our best to build something that truly helps ; and we’re always listening.

All the best, Jerome ### 5/5 — Top *2025-10-31, version 1.21.3* Un faro in fondo al tunnel ### 5/5 — One of the Best Apps *2025-10-27* As a compulsive Gambler. I’ve tried many blocking apps. This one is by far the best I’ve downloaded. If you have a desire to quit gambling after losing or simply just want to take a break. Download this app and set up a sponsor (anyone) it can be anyone who you want to show that you’re trying to quit. (Ive promised many people I was going to quit) but jump right back to it. This feature will send them email when trying to deactivate the app. One of the best things that helped the urges go away. “One Day at a Time” **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words. Reading this truly touches us. This is exactly why we work every day. Knowing that our app has been able to help you resist urges and take steps toward quitting gambling means the world to us. Keep going, one day at a time ! We’re rooting for you! ### 5/5 — A real plan *2025-10-18* When I have senses about me I can choose anything I want to block and keep myself away from hazardous gambling sites. The lack of shame and guilt and dishonesty is worth so much. I’ve lost so much over the years especially my control and pride. **Developer response:** Thank you for sharing that. Regaining control and peace of mind is an important victory, and we’re truly glad the app can support you on that journey. 💪 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Lässt sich umgehen *2026-06-30* Die App ist an sich nicht schlecht aber man kann sie mit den DNS Einstellungen auf iPhone ganz einfach umgehen. Leider **Developer response:** Hallo Andrej, es ist nicht ganz so einfach. Wir haben mehrere Schutzebenen in der App: Der Haupt-Blocker ist nur eine davon. Um den Schutz wirklich wirksam zu machen, sollten auch die zusätzlichen Schutzfunktionen korrekt aktiviert und gesperrt werden. Wir helfen Ihnen gerne dabei, alles richtig einzurichten. Kontaktieren Sie uns bitte jederzeit unter contact@betbreaker.com, damit wir Sie Schritt für Schritt unterstützen können. Bleiben Sie stark. ### 1/5 — Another one that doesn't work *2026-05-31* Tried Gamban, gamblocker and now this. Followed instructions, installed, VPN etc... paid £8.99 thinking it will work... nope... typed in coral , sky bet, let me access them no problem at all. Rubbish **Developer response:** Hi, These sites are included in Bet Breaker and should be blocked when the protection is correctly enabled. Not to mention the custom blocker that would also help you block via a second layer. Please contact us at contact@betbreaker.app so we can check your setup and help you resolve this quickly. The Bet Breaker Team ### 1/5 — Don’t recommend *2026-05-10* It doesn’t work for app blocking if that is what your looking for. Highly doubt recommend for that reasons because that’s definitely what their description is and now I’m fighting with Apple to get my $80 back **Developer response:** Bet Breaker’s blocking system is currently used successfully by many users every day and includes two different protection layers: • Our Main Blocker, which blocks more than 200,000 gambling websites and apps at once • Our Custom Blocker, which lets you block any additional apps or websites of your choice If you experienced any issue with the configuration, please contact us directly at contact@betbreaker.app —> we’ll gladly help you troubleshoot things properly and as quickly as possible. ### 1/5 — Load of rubbish *2026-04-05* You can go in string and click back automatic and access gambling sites **Developer response:** Hello, Our blocking system is designed to be much more robust than what you described. It includes both a main blocker and a custom blocker, each relying on different technical mechanisms to provide layered protection. In addition, you can enable Sponsor Mode, which helps keep you accountable by notifying a trusted friend or family member if you try to bypass the protections. If you need any assistance or would like help setting things up, feel free to reach out to us at contact@betbreaker.app. ### 1/5 — Awful doesn't work on UK sites *2026-04-05* Doesn't block any UK sites complete waste of money BEWARE **Developer response:** Hello, That’s not accurate. Our main blocker covers over 200,000 gambling sites and apps, including legal and unauthorized UK platforms. On top of that, you can block any additional site using your custom blocker. It looks like something may not have been set up correctly on your device, which can happen, and we’re here to help you fix it quickly. We understand your frustration, but calling it a “waste of money” without reaching out for support is unfair given the scope of protection we provide and the work we put in. Please contact us at contact@betbreaker.app and we’ll help you get everything working properly. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2026-03-13* You can just go into settings and turn screen time off, and then you can go gamble 🤦🏼‍♂️ **Developer response:** Hello :) It’s actually not that simple. While this is one layer, our app is designed to go much further by adding multiple levels of protection. We also offer a “sponsor mode”, which can detect if protections are disabled and notify a trusted person. If you need help setting everything up properly for maximum effectiveness, feel free to reach out to us at contact@betbreaker.app We’ll be happy to help. ### 1/5 — Easily deletable even with advanced self exclusion active *2026-02-05* **update to the below** **Sadly two days later I have disabled the app through the screen time as I needed to delete another app on my phone (and this app prevents that) - I then deleted it alongside deleting bet breaker - even though I signed up to a lifetime ban and deactivation proof - disappointment** Deleted and requested refund as doesn’t do what it states. This app is by far the best on the store - does exactly what it says and it can’t be deleted! Great support resources on the app - not just a background app, one to engage in more positive thinking and behaviour change. Genuinely saved my life from turning upside down very quickly! Big ❤️ **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️ We’re truly touched to read your feedback. Knowing it helps people think more positively and navigate tough times means the world to us. We’re so grateful for your support and for taking the time to share your experience. Big thanks! ### 1/5 — Misleading and broken features *2026-01-01* Had high hopes and really needed this app, but after going thru it more and more, a ton of the features don’t work and it honestly didn’t help me quit gambling. Pretty disappointed I paid for this **Developer response:** Hi Appmafiacopycat 👋 We’re really sorry to hear about your experience, but we want to assure you that the app is working as intended. You are actually the first person to report this kind of issue. We would be very happy to get more details from you so we can understand what went wrong and help resolve it. Please write to us at moxyzstudio@gmail.com —> your feedback is extremely important to us. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Can be easily disabled *2025-11-23* I had high hopes for this after paying the subscription. However, access to harmful sites can be easily resorted in one click outside of the app. You should offer a trial to allow people to see if it’s effective for them, especially given the target group have already lost money. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear the app didn’t initially perform as you expected. Just to clarify: the app includes two independent blocking systems, each using a different technical mechanism. The Main Blocker, which provides broad, automatic protection. The Custom Blocker, which lets you instantly block any website of your choice. Both systems can work together, which significantly strengthens the overall protection. For users who want an extra layer of accountability, we also offer Sponsor Mode, where a trusted person will be altered in case you try to bypass the protections. Many users find this extremely helpful to avoid bypassing. If you’d like, our support team can help ensure both blocking systems are fully enabled on your device. We’re here to help you get the strongest possible setup. ### 1/5 — Not too good *2025-10-20* Easily able to delete app. Doesn’t really help prevent accessing apps because it can be deleted by changing a setting **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! Actually, it’s not that easy to delete the app once it’s properly set up ; there are extra steps that make removal much harder. Feel free to email us at moxyzstudio@gmail.com, and we’ll gladly help you set it up correctly so it works as intended. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Bet breaker! Not bank breaker! *2026-08-29* 627 days and no more gambling online! Thanks to this app, the small amount to pay to have more money in my bank is worth every dollar!! ### 5/5 — Day one *2026-08-10* So far the app seems to be exactly what I’m looking for. I’m just trying to remain hopeful it isn’t easily bypassed like Gamban was. When I had an android Gamban was impossible to get rid of but iPhone it takes seconds. I like that you can set the duration of time to block you from the sites you have requested and it will not allow you to unblock them until that specific time is up. However; I don’t love that I have to wait until I’m halfway through my exclusion to extend the time I am excluded. I had set it for 30 days (again today is day 1) just to see if it was legit and then once I saw it was I went to change it to permanent but it says I have to wait until halfway through my current exclusion to extend the time. I just worry that if I am struggling in 15 days that I won’t extend the time so I wish I could do it now, but, hopefully this app will help me through the hard days and help me stay strong enough to still extend it come 15 days. ### 5/5 — Wish I found this sooner *2026-07-18* This has truly saved my life. My only regret is not finding this app sooner. My previous relationship got me addicted to gambling. I will also so much trying to regain what I’ve lost. I’m so happy that I stopped. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. We’re truly grateful to hear that the app has been a helpful part of your journey.

There might be a couple that don’t block but you just send them a message and they will block it for you. There’s a community where you can talk to other people and read their stories and situations. Highly recommend it. **Developer response:** thank you so much for the recommendation 🙏 We’re really glad the app and community are helping. And yes —> if any gambling site slips through, just message us and we’ll do our best to block it quickly. Wishing you continued strength on your journey. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2026-05-31* Best app to stop gambling I’ve wasted so much money on non Gamstop casinos and this app will help I have the permanent lock active and so far I’ve been unable to access any of the dodgy sites I used Very happy 😁 Permanent lock is ideal for problem gamblers I’m fully committed to quitting and this app has helped negate any temptation Thank you 🙏 **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review 🙏 We’re really glad Bet Breaker is helping you stay protected Stay strong !
