Ratings and reviews

I used it for almost a year now. The main feature that caught everyones attention was the reel blocker and it was free for use. I understand certain features being paid but making the feature that you advertised to be helpful into a paid feature was an awful decision in my opinion. Without it the rest of the basic feature are basically useless. Not everyone can pay for premium. especially the target users of this app who are all students. I won't be using it anymore. It was good while it lasted

The app is Amazing and helpful. I increase my study routine with this. But nowadays I am facing some sign up issue. After some times it automatically signed out. And then when I try to sign in I couldn’t 😩. I can't even report. Pls solve this problem. 😑
