About this app

Let's face it, how many times have we gone to YouTube for something specific only to end up watching a video on beluga whales doing somersaults? How many times have we gone to Instagram just to message a friend to find ourselves scrolling 20 minutes deep into the news feed abyss?


Too many times.


BeTimeful is not another blocker app that blocks social media just to make you want to visit it more. Instead, it only takes the distracting elements of social media so you can still use social media & YouTube to your advantage!

Ratings and reviews

App is a scam. It charged an annual payment when the screen said $0 for a trial. Charged e immediately before using the app. The app also didn't even work as it claimed. Support said they don't do refunds. Also doesn't allow you to disable the app, so watch out what permissions you give it!

When it works, it works okay - a little janky but does the job. But it mostly just doesn't work. I'm also a bit suspicious of the method by which it works - it seems to VPN or VM a Safari instance to run the properly-functioning IOS version of the app, which means you need to log in again, which just gives bad security vibes. It also doesn't work with Chrome so you can just use the web version of your apps Given a couple more releases, I'll gladly re-download this and try it again.

unsubscribe me from pro immediately - this app just darkens the social media screen, let's newsfeed audio play in the background, blocks the main apps from opening, and the blacked out newsfeed is still the first thing that opens whether it's in the app or not, I expected it to rerout to another section or remove the newsfeed completely from social media (i.e. tiktok fyp, Ig reels/feed) the apps can't even really be used with the limiter since it's too finicky - not worth $50 a year or even free
