## Review summary

User reviews mainly criticize heavy ads that block interaction and poor reliability across devices. Many say it doesn’t help with existing startup apps, only adds new ones, and it isn’t TV-friendly. Compatibility with Android versions varies, and some changes require a reboot to take effect. A minority report it can work when configured correctly.

### Pros

- Provides startup management to control which apps launch at boot.
- On certain devices and configurations, users report it can work reliably.
- Some reviewers report it works (e.g., 'Working perfectly for me', 'It works').

### Cons

- Ads overlay the UI and can cover buttons, making it hard or impossible to use.
- Unreliable across devices and Android versions (e.g., Android 12 on Moto G, Google TV/Android 14) with many reports of no startup behavior or stability issues.
- Does not show existing startup apps or tasks and only manages apps you add.
- Not well-suited for Android TV / Google TV (remote control navigation issues).
- Requires restart/shutdown to apply changes, and after reboot changes may not persist.
