Review summary

Users praise the app for being free and providing a screen-darkening overlay, with some noting it can be touch-through and reasonably useful. However, many reports highlight that it does not offer true privacy (visibility from the sides), has device compatibility problems (especially on Samsung), includes ads/limited free features, lacks a quick-off toggle, and can be unreliable or intermittently stop working.

Pros

Free to use with no paywall
Overlays and darkens the screen to obscure content
Simple and lightweight to operate
Allows interaction with underlying apps (touch-through) while the overlay is active
Some users express positive sentiment like 'so far so good' or 'nice app' indicating perceived usefulness

Cons

Not a true privacy screen: content is visible from the sides and only partially covers the screen
Incompatible with some devices (notably Samsung) and Android overlay constraints
Ad-supported/free version with limited features and not convincing
No quick way to disable it (no notification toggle) and cannot be easily turned off
Reliability issues: overlay can cut out or stop working intermittently
