3 ★ I found it really useful, effective and relatively easy to use however it hasn't been working properly for a while, it doesn't block the apps when it's supposed to until I check it's on and then it works. Which is fine if you don't need it to turn on at a specific time, but unfortunately I do. Still apart from that one issue it's a pretty good app
5 ★ Great app. The superstrict mode is one of the best.
5 ★ Mantappp
1 ★ Not working on apps now.I have purchased pro also.
5 ★ This app helps because it allows you to create a schedule of focus and it's effective in blocking consistently and correctly with a message that can be personalised in the app consistently. Thank you so much to the team 😍
