Ratings and reviews

I like everything-the functionality and the interface, but there's a major bug, I need to log on every single time I open the app, it retains the timers but does not retain the session. This is a considerable problem and really adds a significant amount of friction, having to go through the sign in process every time. Please fix the sign in issue. Its a great product in all other respects.

It didn't work, I enabled access, I did everything I could for it to work but it feels like the app forgets sometimes to stop me from scrolling, sometimes it blocks the app and sometimes it somehow forgets. it's really weird, I do think that the app has big potential and I love that you don't have to pay for any subscriptions like any other screen time app.

Idea behind this app is great but the app itself is not really as great as expected yet. first of all just force stop the app to get rid off the block, its that easy takes 2secs. Now comes The Time block thing, I don't understand why i have select apps every time i create a new block that literally takes 2-3mins or something just to set up a new block, completely pointless thing. just give us a custom set of blocked apps and we create that set once then choose it from the menu.
