Ratings and reviews

This is so helpful for keeping track of and cutting down on excessive screen time. I use app timers to limit my access to specific apps that I use to doomscroll. Focus mode also helps reduce usage during certain hours. I've used app pausing to keep my phone from crashing due to a particular app I need. Open, interact, close, pause app. No more sudden reboots. 1 star off because it doesn't seem to check if the app is already paused before notifying you of an impending pause.

This is basically spyware. It takes over your phone, and you can't remove permissions from it. Unlike other apps, it also can't be disabled. Doing so just makes changes even more permanent. It can also reinstall itself when removed depending on the device. If you have the choice, don't install, or at the very least don't interact.

This app came pre-installed on my phone, so I cannot remove it. It updated itself, without my knowledge or consent, and from then on my phone was asking me five or six times every day to select a default Launcher... despite my default Launcher being set and never having been changed. Uninstall this app, if you can. If you cannot, then uninstall the updates. I don't know what the app allegedly does, but I know it's clearly causing problems.
