What users are saying

1. With Freedom, I get a single place in which I can create and mange all of my distracting sites and apps and initiate a block session, that works across all devices (couple of laptops, couple of phones, etc.). This is a great service and app, highly recommended to anyone who struggle with keeping focus and maintain concentration.Works as expected on Windows, but the Android app still needs work.

2. My only wish is that they'd develop the ability the ability to have different apps blocked at different times because some apps are both necessary AND a distraction depending on the use, so it would be helpful to block some during the evening when I'm trying to unwind and unblock them during the day when I need them while still blocking other apps without having to manually change the settings each time.

3. Other than that I like the UI and like the fact that sessions can be used across devices, and it does block websites.After using this for a year, I still think the developers need to make a password mandatory for uninstalling it or accessing a phone's settings (Android LG phone).

4. I am constantly having to uninstall and reinstall because it keeps ceasing to block apps after some time.

5. Having properly synced and working PC and Android apps was a major reason I got this app, so I'm a bit disappointed, but still getting something of value out of it.So far so good.

6. I used many services and apps to block distracting sites and apps, but none of them wasn't really good.

7. EDIT: I have tried to disable everything that might be interfering with the app like VPNs, Battery Saver, optimizations, and also the tips they gave on the support page, but it still isn't working.

8. When I contacted, customer support, we made sure all of my settings were correct and they suggested I uninstall and reinstall.

9. I can't find the settings blocking they mention, and I haven't been able to access the App blocking (shield icon) on the Freedom app for several months now.

10. However, when blocking messaging apps you can still reply from the drop-down window for some reason.

11. Have tried many things to get it to work with the help of customer service but nothing has resolved my issues.
