I used to like this app until they added ads. I understand you need to make money, but not only are they annoying, they break the functionality of the app. If you go to text someone, while the ad is loading, you can just go into multitask view and kill the app, ending the lock. I'd rather just pay a small one time fee for usage than deal with ads. Also, the app drains battery like crazy. I use it at night, and must keep my phone plugged in or it will be dead by the morning.

Hello Keith. As you said, we sympathize with your frustration with ads. It was a necessary choice to keep the service free. Please update the app to the latest version and you will be able to purchase the ad-free version. We're also working on the battery drain issue, so please be patient!

I struggle with self control so having an app that actually keeps me out without like a password or anything is just perfect, the layout is simple, you can still call and text if you have to, the ads aren't intrusive (unlike most free apps nowadays) I don't think I have any complaints. Thank you :D Edit: I found out that you can actually turn it off when the timer is going by going to texting, going to where you can see active apps, and clearing cold turkey, it took a while to figure out though

Hi Sumayah. We recently updated the app to reflect the abusing cases you mentioned. Could you try downloading the latest version from the Play Store and see if it unlocks? If you have any further issues, please feel free to contact us via the in-app contact form. Thank you!

Does exactly what you would expect. This app is the only app that blocks your phone that cannot be bypassed, forcing you to actually stay off your phone. Is completely free, unlike other apps with locked fuctionality. Has ads, but they are very unintrusive (simple popup at bottom of screen). Definitely the best app of its type on the Google Play Store.
