I even paid for these extra features.. but then realised it only tracks your phone usage if it’s constantly on.. what’s the point then? The purpose of it is totally defeated if I have to consciously turn it on every time. Why doesn’t it connect to the Screen Time like any other app of this type? ### 2/5 — App in Chinese? *2023-01-03, version 4.5* My app downloaded in Chinese and there is no visible way in the app to change language. Please help ### 3/5 — 付費買積分卻沒拿到任何積分 *2021-07-18, version 4.5* 如題 ### 1/5 — Zusatzoption bezahlt- Error- Geld weg! *2021-02-08, version 4.5* Vorsicht, Scam! ### 1/5 — Falsche Daten *2021-02-06, version 4.5* Also bei mir steht irgendwie nur 30 Minuten obwohl ich es länger an hab ### 4/5 — Good *2021-02-01, version 4.5* It was very good until I realised that there was a difference between my apple screen time tracker in settings and the figure RealizD gave me. Today RealizD was almost an hour above what my phone said I’d spent on it! I am really confused. ### 1/5 — Lost 12 points *2020-12-04, version 4.5* I am so mad. I just lost 12 coins even though I completed the screen-free challenge. I went to a different app first but that doesn’t mean that my challenge was unsuccessful! ### 1/5 — Can’t deactivate app once deleted *2020-10-10, version 4.5* Don’t install as you won’t be able to deactivate the app - have contacted support for help ### 1/5 — Force off doesn't work?! *2020-06-04, version 4.5* I bought this mostly because of force off feature. But when I reach daily usage time, the app just pushes a notification once and that's it. Where's the force off feature? ### 1/5 — Constantly on Zero Min usage *2020-04-26, version 4.3* All locations and background permissions given but it just does not work ### 1/5 — 進階功能完全沒用 *2020-04-10, version 4.3* 為什麼進階功能設定好完全沒效啊? 不能鎖屏，也不會提醒，爛透了!! 寫下留言，希望不會有人再付錢上當!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-03-27, version 4.3* Waste of time ### 1/5 — The app does nothing *2020-02-29, version 4.3* No matter if I have this app always on and/or location services granted or not it just does nothing on my iPhone XR. ### 1/5 — 使用時間永遠都是錯的 這樣還要花錢進階 *2020-02-10, version 4.3* 使用時間永遠都是錯的 這樣還要花錢進階 ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iPhone *2019-12-30, version 4.3* Says I’ve only been on 1 min when I know I’ve been on much longer. Think it needs an update or something. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-12-18, version 4.3* It told me I had only picked up my phone once today so far. I’ve been on and off it all morning. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesnt track if app is closed *2026-05-21, version 4.5* I think it doesn’t track anything if app is removed from multitasking (not opened in background). Kinda pointless app. I was excited to open it to check when i slept and i find out it didn’t even track that whole day… ### 1/5 — Unhelpful and buggy *2023-10-13, version 4.5* I was disappointed in the inconsistent performance of this app. It worked great for the first two days and then stopped tracking my phone usage consistently on day 3. The app has to be running in the background all of the time to work properly, which is fine, but the only result I got on days 3 and 4 was extra battery use. On day 3 I was used a couple of apps more than usual for work, spending hours on my phone between 8am and 2pm and by the time I went to bed that night, it still showed 0 hours of use and only a couple of “pick ups.” Even if the app did track my phone use accurately, it doesn’t offer insights as to how much time is spent by app. So, I could see that I was on my phone for about 4 hours on day 2 but no information about whether the majority of that time was spent on Facebook or Microsoft Teams or texting. The app is unhelpful and buggy. ### 1/5 — In App Käufen *2023-09-26, version 4.5* Ich habe die Käufe nicht bekommen was ich ärgerlich finde ### 1/5 — Didn't work *2022-07-15, version 4.5* Wanted to like this, but it didn't work (maybe because it was last updated 2 years ago). It said I only picked up my phone 2 times in a day, which is definitely not correct. ### 1/5 — Issue with carplay *2022-04-28, version 4.5* When app runs on background and iPhone 13 with the latest ios is connected to bmw g31 via carplay. It constantly stops playing FM and starting playing carplay after about 20 seconds. Which is annoying and app has to be stopped at all. ### 1/5 — No longer works *2022-02-22, version 4.5* It worked great for the first week but it all of a sudden stopped recording in the background. I haven’t changed any settings in the app or in my settings app. Background app refresh is enabled for both cellular and wifi and enabled for RealizD. I do not force close the application. Also, their support email does not exist. I’m not sure if it did at one point but now you get a “failed to send” reply when trying to email support. I paid for the extended insight and most definitely want my money back. Don’t bother downloading the app, it does nothing. ### 1/5 — nothing works *2021-11-19, version 4.5* paid $1.99 for the upgrade and not a single feature works right. screen time is inaccurate, doesn’t send notifications i asked it to, etc. get a different app ### 1/5 — Background refresh work is worst *2021-10-09, version 4.5* The app does not track whole day if you open this app frequently then only it will track time perfectly. Improve it worst app ### 1/5 — Great at first but… *2021-07-28, version 4.5* It’s a great idea for an app and that’s what I thought so I installed it and at the first time I used it I was aww this is great but the all the other times the first time I get on my phone it says your time limits up and it’s so annoying bc I just legit got on my phone ### 1/5 — SO CONFUSING *2021-03-14, version 4.5* I downloaded this app to try to reduce my phone usage, but when i got this app it was so confusing and there were so instructions on how to use the app. All i saw was a bunch of dashes and buttons! I deleted this app after a few days because I just couldn’t figure it out! I would consider repurchasing this app if more instructions are added. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hope it gets maintained *2024-04-30, version 4.5* Although there are so many screen time trackers this one is exactly what I wanted. I hope it doesn’t get discontinued. ### 5/5 — 請問可以看自己幾點幾分打開這個app的嗎？ *2023-02-26, version 4.5* 如題 ### 5/5 — Super app *2022-10-23, version 4.5* Finally app I was looking for long time. Saving your Eyes. JM. ### 5/5 — works great *2020-06-21, version 4.5* So far this app has been perfect and really helped me to be more mindful of phone usage. I thought I would find it needing to be open to track screen usage annoying, but I actually really like it. It means that if I don’t want it to track something as part of my screen time, such as reading an ebook, I can just close the app and then reopen when I’m not reading. Easily opting out of tracking “productive” screen time was something I couldn’t do with other apps and I really appreciate being able to do so with this one. ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2019-09-05, version 4.3* Does the job ### 5/5 — 是長長 *2019-08-09, version 4.3* 聽取青年親密喔感覺他喔超級絕子絕孫情況改善市場年前期間完全採取迅速下降如何能在你能提供超過國家去走走吃吃欸承諾課題啊其實在吵架衝突時失控可以從農場是因為延遲過去促成將邀請你試試拿出紀念品籃球隊避免麻煩頭腦很感慨看戲看情形成長仍然生日吃 ### 5/5 — 良い！ *2019-06-17, version 4.3* シンプルですが、素晴らしい！ こんなアプリさがしていました。 ### 5/5 — 希望能增加各個程式的使用時間 *2019-03-24, version 4.3* 大致很棒 ### 5/5 — 5***** *2019-01-03, version 4.2.1* Fantastic ### 5/5 — よかった *2018-10-29, version 4.2* よかった --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
