So easy to remove, all you have to do on Android is boot into safe mode and deactivate admin app and then uninstall, THAT EASY. I can just remove on chrome using the same method so its kinda stupid

Yeah it works until it doesn't. It stopped letting me open my preinstalled apps on a Chromebook and it's expensive and very easy to remove. Don't use it, find another blocker

The extension won't connect. It just opens a blank window.
