It's amazing!!!! ### 5/5 — Pretty goated *2025-02-08, version 0.6* kinda annoying how everytime u open the app, it asks you to buy the subscriptions, but like that’s every app yknow so overall surprisingly good 👍 ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2025-02-07, version 0.6* It’s helped me a lot ### 5/5 — Helps *2025-02-02, version 0.6* This actually helps with my ADHD so thank u who ever mad this app🎀💕 ### 4/5 — Good app *2025-01-30, version 0.6* I think it’s a really good app, but when I want to edit it, it gives me 20 secs and stops at 11 secs. It just glitches at 11 seconds and so I can’t edit it anymore. Is it possible to fix this? ### 5/5 — The best game EVER *2025-01-27, version 0.6* OMG i love This app It stops me from playing and interacting with my phone and Im really focused with my studying ### 5/5 — Pretty solid. *2025-01-24, version 0.5* I don’t have the pro, but it’s super cheap. I got this but a day ago and it’s mind boggling how much more I’ve gotten done. I figured out the reality of jinn particles, fantasy paradoxes, and endless continuums! Maybe next I’ll use my extra time and finally learn of coding and computer programming and sciences! -A doomscroll free astrophysicist ### 5/5 — Love this app *2025-01-24, version 0.5* It is the best screen time app I’ve ever tried I’ve not had it for that long but it’s already making my screen time go down definitely recommend it. ### 5/5 — Very Helpful! *2025-01-24, version 0.5* I had normal screen time limits for scrolling on YouTube, but I knew the screen time password and just ignored it. This has saved me! Now I have 1hr a day and not 3-4hrs! ### 5/5 — This app works so well *2025-01-23, version 0.5* Unlike the screentime limit in setting you can’t override this with a passcode which is so helpful ### 5/5 — Very good *2025-01-23, version 0.5* I just downloaded the app and I really like it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-12-29, version 1.3.3* Purchased the app and it worked for a while but since my iPhone had an update to 26.1, it no longer blocks my selected app in the time limits I set. Wasted my money as no longer fit for purpose. I messaged the company to query this, however no response. ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-01-27, version 0.6* This app literally posted a Ad of a different companies App: Opal (Great app I use) unlike the real Opal this fake gives you a PayWall don’t get this app get the real one Opal ### 1/5 — Knockoff of a better app *2025-01-17, version 0.4* I saw this app off of YouTube and downloaded it because, well, I want to get better with my phone and the app on YouTube was advertising another app called opal. This app is clearly trying to copy them and trick people into downloading this app. Go get opal if you really want it. ### 1/5 — Rip off from a app called opal *2025-01-12, version 0.4* Pretty much the exact same as opal and even includes “pro” which opal also includes with a rip off ui and just a little different but extremely similar anyway. ### 2/5 — Hard to use *2025-01-27, version 0.6* It looks good and I wanted to be productive so I downloaded the app, for some reason, it didn’t stop me from accessing my blocked apps, and everywhere I go I am given advertisements and a screen asking me about paying a subscription. The stimulation from the advertisements and the failure to block apps like YouTube seems to contradict the purpose of the app. Overall I hope the reason for the trouble isn’t the app but me not knowing how to use it ### 3/5 — Helpful, but buggy and lacks support. *2025-08-27, version 1.3.1* I have loved this app, it’s been fantastic in helping me focus. However there are some bugs and I have reached out to support a couple of times and gotten no response. A bit annoying after paying for a year’s subscription, so I will looking for an alternative when it runs out. ### 3/5 — Pas mal mais j’ai un soucis *2025-03-17, version 0.9* L’application est vraiment bien je ne vais pas sur les réseaux mais quand je dois désactiver une limite de temps j’attends jusque 12 secondes et après je ne peut plus avoir accès à ma limite ### 3/5 — Questiom *2025-02-17, version 0.7* How do you unblock an app? Also how long are they like that? Plus how do you change the timings? ### 3/5 — Useful app, hard to use *2025-02-06, version 0.6* This app is a solid 3.5. The app works as intended, and has been useful for reducing my need to pick up my phone. But the app itself is quite hard to navigate. The start was a little confusing, I’d enjoy more of a hands on tutorial that explains every feature. I still haven’t found a few features I’ve been advertised for. Otherwise this app works so well. ### 3/5 — Timings *2025-01-12, version 0.4* This app is really good and I like it, especially since I can customise what I want the app to block, I give it a 3.5, I don’t know how to make it 3.5. Honestly I would give a solid 4 to the app, but I feel like not having a feature to choose a timing (by that I mean is for it to have a button where u can choose what time it should start and end e.g. to start at 4pm-5pm; also I would like it to have a day feature so u can choose if u want it to work on weekdays or weekends) really annoys me as this app is really good and I just want that one feature which will make it nicely customisable and helpful. If you could fulfil this request I would give this app 5 stars. Anyways I wish that ur app grows and becomes popular, all the best 😊✨👍! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2025-11-11, version 1.3.3* The app worked perfectly ### 5/5 — Is it free without premium? *2025-08-23, version 1.3.1* Hey, just writing to ask whether the standard app without premium is totally free to use, thank you! ### 5/5 — Seal of approval *2025-03-12, version 0.9* The fact there is a free version is incredible.
