What users are saying

1. It's great!I love the different types of rules I can set for specific apps (usage limits, time of day limits, etc), and the little pop-up warnings that show me how long I have left to use an app, etc.

2. You try to tab back to Facebook to finish reading the post- Nope! The app now thinks you're in a new "launch" and blocks you from continuing your session.Good in theory and I like the option to set time limits which is a feature lacking from other app Blockers.

3. Would love a "Screen time" detox where yoy can also set a general limit for all apps, which might give you a repetitive or persistent notification to let off your phone (with exceptions such as when calling or on certain apps).

4. It also seems like it counts app usage during the times the apps are running in the background and not just the time I'm actually interacting with the app.I'm still testing this app but it seems to get the job done so far.

5. The fact that you can pause rules as well is useful for me, because there are times when I want to have free access, and times that I don't (though you can also disable this feature if needed).My only problem is that there seems to be a glitch when I get a notification from a blocked app.

6. Also, it seems to count usage whenever I get notifications from apps I have rules for, which is slightly annoying.It is very useful.

7. Annoying but doesn't happen all the time.I just downloaded your app and it looks exactly what I need, But I tested it and it feels like it's not working all the time : 1.

8. Apps open against time rules 2.

9. For example, whenever a Facebook notification pops up at the top of the screen, it minimizes the app I was using at the time, even if it's not blocked.

10. Like if I've used up all of my internet time but I really need to go look something up, I can pause for five minutes and then the rule automatically resumes.

11. I like how flexible the rules are, and that you can stack them for a single app (e.g., limiting both time and launches).
