Ratings and reviews

It would be great if 1. I could white list apps for free because I cannot afford to pay for this app and 2. if I could still receive phone calls while the app is in active use. But since I can't white list apps for free and this app blocks phone calls when in use, this app is useless to me.

So at the moment I can only give 3 stars. It works great as it stops you from doing anything on the phone except phone calls and messages but I bought the lifetime service and it doesn't seem to be working. It's showing as though I didn't buy anything. It's saying something along the lines of 'Somethinf went wrong. Try again later'. So currently it's as though I don't have premium. If I could get that fixed, it would be much easier.

So far this app is working well for me. I downloaded it due to issue with the other app(Social-X). The team was nice enough, to e-mail me about the issue, and fix it, but unfortunately the problem vame back, so I decised to use this app instead. Even though this is a very simple app, it does what it supposed to do, to keep you away from all kinds of addictive apps. I will use it regaularly to improve my life, and hold myself accountable.
