User Reviews

BePresent can help users reduce screen time and provide accountability, with several reviews noting real behavior change and motivation. However, recurring problems undermine its value: difficult billing/trial experiences and unhelpful or slow customer support; reliable performance issues (lag, crashes); inconsistent app blocking (essential apps sometimes blocked or not blocked); and a steep, non-Apple Store pricing model. Overall, it shows potential for positive impact but reliability, support, and cost concerns hinder widespread satisfaction.

Pros

Effectively reduces and changes user behavior around phone usage
Helps with self-awareness and accountability (progress tracking, accountability partner potential)
Blocking capabilities to limit access to apps and promote focus
Positive experiences for many users who found it helpful and motivating

Cons

Billing and free trial issues, including unexpected charges and unclear cancellation
Poor or non-responsive customer support
Performance problems like lag, slow loading, and crashes
Inconsistent or problematic app blocking/allowlist (blocking essential apps or failing to block intended ones)
Expensive pricing and a complicated subscription model (not through Apple Store, no free version)

I'm finding this app effective in limiting my screen time so far.

Less time on Instagram and a game.

Super scammy made it hard to cancel, they are routing payments outside the Apple Store. Given how scammy the payments were and how downvoted the negative reviews are I’m guessing bot farming reviews.
