User Reviews

Users largely praise the core feature to lock/hide apps, seeing it as a useful tool to curb phone usage, especially after upgrading. However, there are frequent concerns about pricing and licensing, with lifetime purchases not honored and new charges introduced. Reliability is another big issue: scheduling and session triggering are buggy, occasionally causing sessions to fail or not start as planned. Some users feel updates reduced functionality and pushed more features behind payments. Overall, the app shows potential for reducing distraction but payment practices and stability are significant drawbacks.

Pros

Core feature to lock/hide apps to reduce distractions.
Useful after upgrading to the full version/premium.
Blocking/hiding apps aligns with users' needs.

Cons

Pricing/licensing issues: lifetime purchases not honored and new charges introduced, reducing perceived value.
Reliability and scheduling bugs: sessions often fail to start or run as scheduled, making the tool unreliable.
Perceived post-update feature reductions and increased gating behind payments, diminishing functionality.

APP DOES NOT WORK AT ALL WHATOVER. I bought the lifetime pass and i’m able to scroll on any app very freely i put the time i liked it to be and it showed me the screen only once and after that not a single time im able to just be on my phone as much as I want. I want an explaination from this, and if there’s nothing else to discuss I would like a refund Wasted my money for nothing

I already paid for a lifetime subscription for this app over a year ago, and it was totally fine until they updated it and started charging a yearly, monthly, or a different year time subscription that was about 3X what I paid before, they did not honor the purchase I already made and now the app has super limited function, and they’re trying to make me pay again for a lifetime subscription to get it back to its normal working state. Super disappointed.
