### 4/5 — 设置单个APP时间

怎么设置单个APP时间

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-11-25*

Really helpful app to stay off the distracting apps. It is also very easy to set up compared to other apps such as One sec which complicate the process too much.
Clean UI and an app which does not collect your data.
Thank you

### 1/5 — 너무 별로내요

*2026-03-02*

유료 앱이라서 기대하고 결제했는데 자꾸 시간 오류 나고 문의 넣었는데 답장도 안 오고 앱을 너무 대충 만든 건지 화가 나네요 돈날렸어요 위의 피드백들은 뭐 댓글 도용 아닌지 의심 됩니다 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

### 1/5 — Can’t even use app

*2026-02-09, version 2.2*

When to go select app and it won’t let me get past the “select apps to block” section as it says I need to upgrade to select more options - regardless of how many i select! And if I go to click upgrade, it won’t even let me upgrade either.

### 1/5 — 리뷰

*2025-07-27*

개별로임

### 2/5 — Beware

*2025-03-10*

I downloaded the app, set it up and it immediately locked me out of every app. 
I deleted the app and I’m still locked out of every app but the App Store. 
Beyond frustrated that I cannot turn it off, disconnect screen time access, nothing.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear about this issue! Please use the Feedback option in the Settings to contact us directly, and we’ll assist you in resolving it as soon as possible.

### 3/5 — このアプリ自体を制限できない

*2025-04-08, version 2.0.8*

snsなどのアプリを制限できるのはいいが、このアプリ内出報酬のようなシステムがあり自分で勝手に何歩歩いたら何分追加など自由に設定できてしまうので強制力が低い。その上このアプリ自体の閲覧制限をかけられないので意思が弱いとすぐ自分に甘えれてしまう。

### 3/5 — 機能は良いけどもう一歩

*2025-03-21, version 2.0.8*

「良いアプリ」の設定が一括りで、例えばAの勉強アプリ10分→自由時間5分、Bの勉強アプリ20分で自由時間5分と言ったバラバラの設定が出来ない。

有料版なら出来る？
もし出来るのならそれこそ試してから課金したいところ….

### 3/5 — 1.5.2 添加习惯会闪退

*2024-11-26*

1.5.2 添加习惯会闪退

### 4/5 — Great but a few bugs.

*2026-04-26*

I downloaded this app to limit my social media time because it was simple and straightforward with its functions unlike other screen time apps. Does the job pretty well but does have a few bugs. Sometimes it cuts me off well before I know my screen time is up. Today for example it was 12:24 in the morning and said I had already used 40 minutes which is impossible. And the reset screen time button basically never works. I either have to up my screen time or turn off permissions for the app to access my apps. If this was fixed it would be five stars.

### 4/5 — Great

*2026-01-16*

This app helped me control my screen time so much

### 4/5 — 이 점은 개선시켜주세요!

*2025-04-29*

정말 다 좋은데 최대시간이 90분인 점이 좀 많이 아쉬운 것 같아요! 제가 핸드폰 사용시간에 제한을 두고 싶어서요. 최대시간을 6시간까지(360분) 사용 할 수 있도록 설정 부탁드립니다!!

### 5/5 — ❌❌❌

*2026-04-22*

WHAT IS RONG WITH YOUR APP BECAUSE I SELECTED ALL THE THINGS THAT DISTRACT ME AND IT IS STILL NOT LETING CONTINUE IT WANTS TOO PICK MORE THINGS EVEN THOUGH I PICKED ALL THE THINGS THAT DISTRACT ME!!!😡😤😡😤

### 5/5 — Pretty decent

*2026-03-08*

I like how customizable it is than actual screen time

### 5/5 — 젤 좋아 진심

*2025-12-19*

👌

### 5/5 — I love your app

*2025-09-17*

This app is life changing. I highly recommend it to those who struggle with lack of focus and discipline. However, please add some extra rules, like an ability to set different rules for different days, or an ability to switch off the counter for a day. Sometimes when you stay sick at home, only those destructive apps can make you feel better. And it’s annoying to change the app list every time.

### 5/5 — 진짜 너무 좋아요!

*2025-08-12*

원래 공부는 안 하고 유튜브나 게임만 했었는데 이거 깔고 뭐 스크린 타임 걸고 미션도 만들고 음원도 틀고 하니까 공부에 흥미를 느끼기 시작했어요 진짜 너무 좋은 꿀템 입니다 진짜 추천드려용~~!!

### 5/5 — 다른앱들과 다르게 보상체계처럼 설정할 수 있다는점이 좋다 내 공부시간 비례뿐만아니라 운동시간까지도

*2025-07-05*

가격도 다른앱들비해 혜자고 안에 기능도 좋은데 한가지 아쉬운점이 단축어를 만들어주셨으면 좋겠다 또한 통계기능이 좀만더 자세하고 세새하면서 다양한 그래프가 추가되면 좋겠다.

### 5/5 — 帮助无痛自律

*2025-03-28*

一开始设置的时候会有一点点麻烦，但使用起来真的很有帮助，不仅让我花在看iPhone16的破屏幕的时间上更少（这一款的屏幕真的很伤眼），还鼓励建立好习惯比如多运动。

### 5/5 — Nice

*2025-03-15, version 2.0.7*

Very good even with free version

### 5/5 — 정말 좋다..!

*2025-03-11*

스크린 타임 관련 앱 여러개 써봤는데 이게 제일 좋고 효과가 크다. 다른 앱은 시간 지나면 대놓고 못하게 하니 짜증났는데 이 앱은 건강앱 연동해서 스텝 수나 운동 칼로리만큼 스크린타임을 벌어서 사용할 수 있어 정말 좋았다. 
Good apps 에 평소 잘 안하는 공부앱을 설정했더니 스크린타임 시간을 리딤하기 위해 공부를 하고 있는 날 발견함ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 
폰중독된 사람 심리를 너무 잘 이해한 앱. 개발자님 복받으세요. 최고 최고!

I’ve tried several screen time apps, and this one is the best and most effective. Other apps just block access outright when the time is up, which was frustrating. But this app syncs with apple health, allowing you to earn screen time based on your step count or exercise calories, which I loved.

I set study apps that I usually avoid in the “Good Apps” section, and I caught myself studying just to redeem more screen time. 

This app truly understands the psychology of phone addicts. Bless the developers! Absolutely the best!

**Developer response:** 감사합니다! 😊

StayOff가 스크린 타임 관리에 도움이 되었다니 정말 기쁩니다. 저희는 계속해서 앱을 개선하여 여러분의 필요에 맞는 서비스를 제공하기 위해 노력하겠습니다.

다시 한 번 소중한 피드백과 응원에 감사드리며, 다른 요구 사항이 있으시면 언제든지 피드백해 주세요! 🙏

### 5/5 — 내 자신울 채찍질하는 앱

*2025-03-09*

이 앱을깔고 내가 얼마나 많은 인생을 쓸데없는곳에 투자하는지 알게됨

**Developer response:** 이 앱이 여러분의 시간을 더 가치 있게 만들어주는 데 도움이 되었으면 좋겠습니다! 😊
