### 5/5 — Simple and helpful

*2026-06-29*

Very effective in helping me avoid doom scrolling

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! ❤️ Seeing how often we reach for our phones can be surprisingly eye-opening. I'm really happy TaskLock is helping you build more mindful habits and take back control of your screen time.

### 5/5 — Best App！

*2026-06-10*

I've tried a lot of productivity apps, but TaskLock is the first one that actually changed my behavior.

What makes it different is that it doesn't just track screen time — it creates enough friction to stop mindless app opening before it happens. The cooldown timer sounds simple, but it's surprisingly effective. Most of the time, I realize I didn't really need to open the app in the first place.

After using it for a few weeks, my screen time dropped significantly, I sleep earlier, and I feel much more in control of my attention. Highly recommended for anyone who struggles with endless scrolling or impulsive phone use.

### 5/5 — 绝了

*2026-05-31*

非常好的软件！帮助我回归正常生活找到自信和自律的快乐

**Developer response:** 谢谢支持！❤️
我一直觉得，大多数人并不缺努力，而是缺一个能帮自己抵抗冲动的工具。
希望它能继续陪你把时间花在真正重要的事情上。

### 5/5 — Best decision I've made for my screen time

*2026-04-16*

I've been using TaskLock for about a week now, and I can already see a noticeable drop in my screen time. What really got me was seeing the actual number of times I pick up my phone each day — honestly kind of terrifying once you see it laid out like that. But that's exactly what makes this app work. Once you're aware of the habit, you naturally start catching yourself. Highly recommend if you're trying to be more intentional with your phone use.
