### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-07-07*

Well done, easy to use and effective in reformatting my phone to be less of a time vampire.

### 5/5 — Impeccable App

*2026-05-20*

I’ve never reviewed an app before but given there are all these paid alternatives, this is the one to get. The author is doing a public service by releasing this simple yet powerful app for free! Thank you!! Functions perfectly and setup was clear and easy.

### 5/5 — Super helpful and beautiful

*2026-03-21*

This app is super helpful for minimizing phone use, as well as making your phone a lot less distracting and more aesthetically pleasing. Does exactly what it says it does, and in the settings the share that they will add apps requested within 24 hours. Just requested a few apps, so hopefully they’ll be able to include those and I can update this review!

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2026-02-12*

Other apps charge $25 but this does the same thing for free!

*2026-01-17*

I’ve tried so many other apps, but this being free is what keeps me.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2025-10-21*

Love the idea behind this app, especially being free and maintained by one developer.  However, it just doesn’t work.

The Focus page will freeze up when trying to select apps, meaning some categories you cannot get to at all.  And specifically I had checkmarked to block Reddit and… it just doesn’t block it.  Other apps are blocked successfully.  Bummed that I had to uninstall

**Developer response:** Hi Leslie,

Thank you for taking the time to share this — and I really appreciate the kind words about the idea behind the app.

I’m sorry you ran into the freezing issue on the Focus page and that Reddit wasn’t being blocked properly. That’s definitely not the experience I want anyone to have. I’m actively working on improving stability and fixing edge cases like this.

If you’re open to it, I’d truly appreciate another try in a future update. And if you’d like to share more details (device + iOS version), it would really help me track this down.

Thanks again for giving Unscroll a shot 🙏
— Satnam

### 5/5 — Thoughtful design!

I was initially skeptical about this new app, but after downloading it, I was genuinely impressed. It offers extensive customization and highly intuitive focus mode configurability.

**Developer response:** Hey codetard, thanks for the review. We are glad you like it. Thank you, Satnam S.
