Idea is there

So I feel that there shouldn’t be a premium for this or at least you can do more stuff without premium because I’m really this school year, and get stronger. But I can’t because the max push-ups it allows me to do is 50 without premium also, you can’t go over 10 minutes of screen time because I originally wanted my stats to be 75 push-ups for 15 minutes of screen time, but it won’t let me because I not premium yet. So I feel that there should be more things to do without premium. But I love the idea of the app and it’s a great way to cut down your screen time.

Response from developer

Thank you for your valuable feedback! We offer discounted plans for students—please reach out to us at hamsters.tech@gmail.com and we'll be happy to help you get set up.

Unintuitive timer + lacking features

Biggest gripe I have is how meeting a step counter gives me X mins/hrs IMMEDIATELY. I cannot accumulate screen time and use it later. I’d rather have 1000 steps = 5/10min of screen time and use blocked apps for a bit depending on how much I walk.

Pros:
- Blocks apps very well, even visiting their website. Awesome! 1 extra star for this

More Cons:
- no option to start my day with X min/hr of time on the app.
- no way to reset “banked” steps daily (banking steps doesn’t even exist…)
