Missing some features.

This is the only app I’ve found so far for iPhone that allows you to set it to X minutes per hour, instead of day. I love that it breaks up my scrolling.

Things I don’t like:
1. I have an iPhone so I dont to apply it to 24 hours.
2. There is no warning that I’m about to hit my X minutes, so the sudden stop is very abrupt
3. I wish strict mode had an option to add 5 extra minutes one time so I could wrap up whatever I was doing before I got abruptly blocked.

Not effective on ios

Even in strict mode I am able increase amount of time for blocked apps. What’s the use of strict mode if I can do it ?

Time based app restrictions

I had used this app for close to six months now and I had been quite appreciative of the fact that it stops me from using my phone once the strict mode is on, which in turn has helped me with my ADHD. Among the many profiles I have created and use, most are for restrictions of apps based on time used. In the earlier versions one wasn’t able to edit the amount of time that an app is restricted while strict mode is on, but on the recent update, that has changed, giving users a window to edit the amount of minutes or hours that they can use the restricted apps. This, in my opinion is counterproductive. I understand that it gives users a chance to make their profiles tighter even while strict mode is on but it also gives users to loosen those blockages.
Please consider making some sort of amendments on future updates to let users NOT extend the usage times on the blocked apps.
Thank you.

Une différence importante

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi l’application Stay Focused est si différente sur IOS. La version gratuite sur Android est tellement meilleure. Ici, il faut vraiment payer pour avoir un blocage performant et notamment la meilleure spécificité : le blocage strict qui nous empêche de tricher. Énormément de déception, je ne peux pas installer cette application sur mon iPad.

Response from developer

Merci pour votre retour. Nous comprenons votre déception. Malheureusement, iOS impose des restrictions système très strictes qui empêchent de reproduire certaines fonctionnalités disponibles sur Android, notamment le blocage strict et d'autres protections avancées. Ces limitations sont imposées par Apple, pas par notre application. Nous continuons à améliorer la version iOS dans les limites autorisées et espérons pouvoir vous offrir une meilleure expérience à l'avenir.

Response from developer

Dear, on Android you were using a different account than the one that was used to purchase the app. We helped you by refunding that purchase so you could activate the Premium subscription on the correct account. Please check if the same issue is happening here. Also, we kindly request that you avoid posting inaccurate or misleading comments, as we have already worked with you to resolve this issue.

Really Good App

This app is so good because I don’t know how to use it so I can never unblock my apps and it actually keeps me off instagram!

I can’t delete it

I downloaded it before I found a better app. But it’s not letting me delete it. I’ve tried a bunch of things. Any help? Developers?

Was Able to Delete

I installed Stay Focused and placed on strictest setting. For work, my IT team requires me to download a uninstall and reinstall an app. I was able to, without having to enter the 64 character code. Then I uninstalled Stay Focused, again without having to enter the code. What a waste of money.

🤨

Je ne comprends pas. Je pensais que l’application allait bloquer les sites sur lesquels je ne veux pas aller mais non… faut-il mettre un blocage plus fort dans les réglages ?

Its blocking unnecessarily

I blocked instagram youtube day limit of 3hrs but its blocking even if I don’t use that app for even 1-2hrs even my screen time is not more than 2hrs then also its blocking my apps and strict mode is on i cant even use it for 1 hr also after buying premium version this mistake is not acceptable

Entering the string of numbers and text did not disable to strict mode.

I am sure I entered it correctly. It is long, but I entered it very carefully, checked it five times, took screenshots and had an AI find differences. It found one, I fixed it. Does not unblock. I spent hours entering the strings! Ava, you can email me about it at yara.kadulina at gmail com
