The functionality this app offers does NOT require your traffic to route through their VPN. They also do NOT disclose what they do with your data. ### 1/5 — Scammy app won’t work unless given VPN access *2024-04-05* Take it from a software developer, there is no need for an app like this to require VPN in order to operate. This app is a scam. ### 1/5 — How it works *2023-11-09* It dose not work the phone doesn’t turn of the phone when the time runs out ### 1/5 — No privacy *2023-05-20* This app has a VPN to track you. DO NOT GET! ### 1/5 — Vpn *2022-02-23* There is no need for an app like this to require a VPN. **Developer response:** Kidslox VPN is a modified solution that ensures such features as Daily Limits, Schedules, and Apps blocking are working effectively. Our VPN is not changing or encrypting IP addresses, as a regular one would do. Sorry if this brought you confusion. ### 1/5 — What’s VPN *2021-10-10* I dont know if vpn is safe or not so I didn’t do it **Developer response:** Our app uses VPN for the correct work of all the features. We use it only to filter the traffic, it doesn't change IP or location of the device, no worries about it ### 1/5 — Fraud? *2021-05-31* They ask for VPN access, they don’t need it. Don’t download this app. **Developer response:** We are sorry that you feel this way. We use VPN for the correct work of the app and all the features. ### 1/5 — Don’t download it *2021-05-09* It only gives you four hours and 20 minutes do you only people would actually like this is the parent don’t ever try this you’ll end up like me this app stinks and I hope to get rid of it nobody likes it and if you dare to try it well my friends here in trouble **Developer response:** We are sorry that you feel this way.

I was wondering if you have an option for it to remind me when I’m nearing my screen time limit or a way to adjust it automatically based on my daily use. ### 5/5 — Just downloaded it *2021-12-17* I just downloaded this app. No problems so far. I’m liking it. I appreciate how they remind you how much you’ve used. By the way, I’m not a bot..I saw a review saying it’s all bots but I’m a human and this review is genuine. Thanks. **Developer response:** Thanks for the excellent feedback. We are really working hard to make Screen Time Challenge an efficient tool ### 5/5 — This is good *2021-06-24* Very good **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We are glad that you like our app. ### 5/5 — great but can I get more remind? *2021-03-12* can I get remind like every 30 minutes of my screen time, so I don't have to check it on the app, and suddenly stop everything I am doing when time limit reached? **Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We will consider adding this feature in future. If you have some other suggestions, don't hesitate to send them to support@kidslox.com ### 5/5 — This app is awesome! *2020-07-09* I got this app today and it is awesome!

It was hard for me to realize that I wasted so much time on such useless things ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-05-01, version 1.0.2* What a great app to control my time on phone. I really love it! ### 5/5 — It does just what it says! *2020-04-26* It’s free and it works! Thank you 👍 **Developer response:** Thank you for your support!

It would be really cool if you were able to see your stats as a small widget on your lockscreen! ### 3/5 — Broken *2023-05-22* Loved it for 24 hours then it stopped working. Hoping for a fix soon. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
