Spool review

Spool has been a game changer for me. I’ve gained so much time back and I am starting to get out of the habit of mindlessly opening my social medias throughout the day

This app is so worth it!!!!!

I have like the worst procrastination problem and I love just scrolling on my phone for hours but spool has def cut down my screen time and it’s made me so much more productive!! I really like that it’s timed and if you wanna scroll it’s a slight process to allow it (not impossible though and doesn’t take too much time) but it’s genuinely very worth it because it deters you!! 10/10 fr

Waste of time and money save yourself the trouble

Wasted my time, just for a hard paywall, app has same features as every other screen time app, plenty of better solutions both free and paid.
Absolutely appalling app, I have tried several screentime apps and was drawn in by this apps supposed “unique solution” instead I noticed they have blatantly taken aspects from all the other apps. The onboarding was incredibly long, just repeating the same message again and again, it then showed a paywall with no way to bypass. When I clicked the x on the paywall, it then gives you an offer that has a discount that’s incorrect. This app purely tries to waste your time and make you feel invested so you buy. I would try any other screentime app, there are plenty of better ones both free and paid.

Gute Idee, aber warum MUSS es Geld kosten??!

Wenn es eine premium Funktion gibt, die was kostet ist das auch dreckig, aber wenn man generell zahlen muss ist das richtig respektlos

Money greedy

You can’t do anything without paying. Don’t bother. Complete waste of time. Useless app.

Not free

This app is not free and you must pay a pricey subscription to access anything.

Why?

I was very happy about this app because it’s seems very good, and u downloaded and I made all of that quiz, I was excited, and when I finally end the quiz, I have to pay, I press X to not pay, and just put another mini screen and says “limited one time offer” I press X and then again the screen to pay, I press X and repeat repeat and repeat, why don’t say initially to pay, I made all of that quiz, I was very excited and then I have to pay, bro just specify I have to pay, not at the end of the quiz, still I guess very good app, my friends recommended this app to me and I was very excited but I have to pay

thank you for your kind review!

Amazing all around

From the awesome UI to the ease of setup. This app is everything I needed to help my screetime addiction. Thank developers for this!!

I LOVE SPOOL

I’ve tried so many screentime blocking apps this is the only one that’s been working for me. My screen time dropped from 9 hours a day to less than 3!!!

putting an excuse is annoying enough to be a good deterrent

i don’t even want to do that in public

blew my mind

super useful

Promising…

This app at least makes me pause and think about what I’m doing so I really like it. Let’s see how it works over a longer period.
Been looking for something that doesn’t treat me like a child and ask me to go do pushups LOL.

Excellent

Best app I have ever seen! Excellent use of graphics

Response from developer
