useful app

good for screen time control. however, sometimes (rarely) when I unlock, the apps don't unlock and I need to redo it. also I'm not sure why friends use a shared pool of time since that feels like it defeats the purpose of having restrictions?

Love it

I actually love this app it’s the only screen time app I’ve tried so far that actually works and forces me to rethink every time I try to scroll plus the competition with friends is really good motivation to try and beat their screen times. Overall just love it, it makes me more productive in a fun way

Actually works to fix scrolling

really useful and the only screen time blocker I’ve used that actually works

Update

After the update it has been running really slow so it is hard to open the blocked apps

I keep coming back

I’ve deleted this app 3 times so far because I think I can control my screen time without it, then I get depressed cause I spent half the day on my phone. Social media is much more enjoyable when taken in controlled doses. I just wish my friends would join my group.

Some ol’ Info

This app is (at its base level) free. With the free plan, you can block two apps at a time, and you get one pre-set hour of focus time a day (where you cannot unlock apps blocked by Snitch at all). It works amazingly well, and is definitely usable on your own, but is definitely built for pairs or groups. There are no cash-grabs or annoying ads. This app was built by a group of people with the same problem as you, and with a solution that works! I highly recommend.

I love

I have a few friends on this app and it helped us all reduce our screen times! It ends up being more work and more embarrassing to notify all your friends that you’re using your screen time just to doomscroll. It’s an amazing app for students

I love this app

I have been looking for an app to limit my screen time and I love this one. I use it with my boyfriend and it really has been working. I would recommend giving it a try. There is a free version in the app and that’s what I use.

I LOVE

first off.. umm THANK YOU FOR CREATING THIS!!

My screen time on social media literally DROPPED, it’s so dang good. Love it 10/10. Been recommending this with all my other friends who are chronically online.

시험기간에꼭까셈

친구랑 시험기간마다 같이 깔아서 하고 있는데 확실히 폰 보는 시간 줄어서 좋아여 그리고 내 시간 다 쓰면 친구시간 뺏어 쓸 수 있는게 개처웃김

Genius app

Brother, the amount of time this has saved me on social media is ridiculous. Definitely use it

Best screen time control app

I’ve used three different screen control apps to limit my doom scrolling and this so far is my favorite
My husband and I are able to keep each other accountable and mindful and encourage each other to do something else instead of mindlessly doom scrolling

Ok

It's impossible to delete or update your own voice note, for some reason the group chat always shows the newest messages instead of the oldest ones when opened, and you can't reply to messages or edit them

fun but…

it’s awesome, fun, silly, but drains the HELL out of my battery 💔

Good app

There are a few technical issues, such as buttons not working properly here and there, although the app is great. It’s the first app with this concept that actually works well. One issue I’ve noticed is that the timer starts as soon as you unlock the app, instead of only counting the time you’re actually using the locked apps. I often unlock my phone and then forget about it, which ends up wasting precious group time.

Issues with time

At first this app was fun and extremely entertaining. Oftentimes my friends and I would yell at each other for using up each other's time, and I love this mark zuckyberg. However, everything changed once i went on vacay, where i experienced a 2 hr time zone change. All of a sudden the time bank was messed up and not synced between the group, even as I returned to my original location. Dear developers i urge you to fix the time accuracy and restore the joy i felt oh so passionately before this detrimental bug

nice app

would love more funny but effective deterring block screens like the zuckerberg one while i blocked instagram

FUNNY ASF

me and my friends have really bad screentimes mine being *cough cough* 9 hours a day sometimes going up to 18 but my main point is that when i was doing my regular impulsive tiktok session the “ i want your data” thing popped up and i genuinely started laughing so hard i forgot to doomscroll. thanks for making this app

So many bugs

Every update, the app gets more and more buggy. My public enemy is…myself?? And unlocks yesterday doesn’t work anymore. Timezone still doesn’t work, as the creator of the group can’t find a way to fix it.

It’s pretty good

It sometimes gets annoying with how well it does its job, but it has allowed me to spend more time off my phone doing things that actually matter. So I couldn’t be more pleased. Definitely recommend if you want to unplug somewhat.
