Make u review to do anything smh
Db
SCAM. Didn’t work and didn’t let me cancel.
Videos didn’t open in app then cancel subscription button doesn’t work. Unfortunate as the idea was promising.
Unable to watch videos
I like this app a lot I think it’s straight to the point and I’m finding myself less distracted, only issue is there’s a constant error code , 152-4 that’s making it impossible to watch anything else but what I’ve already previously watched in my personal history.
Good

THEY WILL SCAM YOU
Do NOT put in your credit card info or else they will keep billing you indefinitely even after you’ve cancelled. And even after emailing MULTIPLE times, you will still have to dispute the transaction with your bank and block their merchant account from billing you.

Extremely poor set up instructions make app unusable
I cant do anything in the app because it says "Allow Feedless Screen Time Permission to Turn off Ads and Distraction". There is no guide on how to do this and this is nowhere in my settings. I wasted more time in my settings trying to figure out how to get the app to work than I would have watching youtube

Garbage
This app doesn’t let you watch any videos. Period. Unless they get to shove their premium subscription down your throat, they won’t even let you log out from your account. Utter disgrace! How this app even has a 4 star rating is beyond me.
Bad user experience

Can’t use without screen time permission
Unfortunately this isn’t usable without sharing your screen time usage data for some reason. Although it explains why they want this access, it’s not clear to me why I can’t access the platform without it.
Doesn’t work
I paid for the yearly subscription but your daily progress resets meaning it can’t track my progress.
Stop Doomscrolling
I get lost in YouTube doomscrolling & this app has helped me stay focused.
Great
Great app to avoid distraction
Fast and free solution
It is a good app to limit your shorts use you can even use it for your kids to prevent them from shorts
Useless without subscription
It takes advantage of ur addition for the subscription
Frustrating
I’m sure the pro version works swimmingly, has all the features I would pick if I wanted to curb a YT addiction. It’s nearly useless otherwise. Try to enter subscriptions? Upgrade to pro. Go to profile? Pick either pro or free plan (it prompts you to upgrade no matter what). Infuriating.
Why is it so hard to find a good app blocker?
Forced to unlock pro? No thanks. Instantly deleting this. I should be allowed to use the free option without being forced to enable pro right out of the gate. If I want to try the trial I will activate the trial, but don’t make me. How am I supposed to know if the free version is worth my time if you won’t let me try it?

Dark patterns and scammy design
The app won’t let you do anything unless you give it Screen Time access and sign up for a “Pro” trial where tiny text obscures the actual cost (which isn’t much cheaper than just getting YouTube Premium). It presents the option for a Free plan, but won’t let you tap on it.
The dark patterns this app uses are reprehensible and I deleted it as soon as I couldn’t even tap anywhere without setting up a subscription to it.

money grab
doesn’t even hold a candle to its pc counterpart. gotta pay to have to access to all youtube channels? uh ok 🙄 out of my face.
Unusable without pro
So, I’m not trying the full version without trying it first considering other reviews have had bad experiences with that. But I literally can’t use the free version without getting spammed with pop-ups telling me to use pro. :|
Holy Cow!
Honestly, Unhook is a really great app, I love it and I’m so surprised at how amazing the developers are for creating an app that is so good at pretty much just everything, video wise. But it is pretty funny how you have to review in five star to unlock other videos. But again it is a very good app and I’m so happy with it.
