I am changing my review the sleep issue has still not been fixed the the app still prevents phone from sleeping leading to potential screen burn in and kills battery too. The schedule block feature is cool in theory but rendered useless if someone has go manually put phone to sleep. New features mean nothing if issues still exist others are saying it too. fix this pronto also what with the allowed apps it it says choose essential apps but can only pick one not sure what's up with that

Hi, I'm an app developer. For sleep mode, we recommend disabling the battery optimization setting, as this will allow you to use it without any issues. We are aware of the battery issue and will continue to work on it.

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!

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.
