### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2018-02-27*

I was hoping it could breakdown what I was using my phone for but it doesn’t. But worse than that, it says that most nights that I’m using my phone nonstop between midnight and 6 am. Not possible since I’m asleep and it’s in the other room. I will be deleting this app and searching for a new one.

### 5/5 — Great app for tracking activity

*2016-04-28*

Accurately displays activities, and doesn't drain the battery severely on iPhone 6.

### 4/5 — It's fine

*2016-03-30*

I like it

### 1/5 — Not much useful

*2016-03-06, version 1.1.1*

It doesn't say how or where to find the three data files in iTunes.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2016-01-17*

This has not updated for almost a year. It does not function in any helpful way.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2015-12-06*

Don't waste your money

### 1/5 — No

*2015-08-31, version 1.1.1*

Avoid

### 1/5 — Waste

*2015-07-09*

This app does not log access to my iPad like it said it would!!!! That's what I bought it for, to log when anyone tries to use it.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2015-04-26*

I want a refund! This app doesn't work unless you grant it access to your location all the time. Why would that impact your usage? Total waste of an app.

### 2/5 — Needs more than one day of useage info

*2015-03-19, version 1.1.1*

This is a good app to see how you wasted your time on your iDevice. Was disappointed that I couldn't look at any info prior to current day ( even when the app had been running on those days). 

This would be ideal to have on a kids iPhone / iPad especially if you could view say the previous weeks usage. 

Are they using the device at night or have they been regularly exceeding their screen time allowance. However at the moment this app can't quite do that, other than for the current day :(
