I have tried so many of these apps but this is something special. I cut down my screen time by half, but it felt less like a punishment. I feel like I’ve actually grown, and just don’t have that same itch to reach for my phone that I used to…. Definitely recommending this to all mu friends and family that struggle the same way I used to - TRY IT!
Could be a lot better

First, I’d like to say that they said they would send a reminder notification that the free trial is about to end, and no notification came, so it charged me over $60 for a year subscription. But whatever, I was using the music to help focus and another app to block the apps. Since this one already charged me, I deleted the other app and used this one’s app blocking system. The app blocking is horrible and needs to be fixed. There are only specific apps I want to keep open, and if you select apps to stay open, for some reason it opens a bunch of other apps! Even social media! So it really defeats the purpose! Then after a couple of weeks using this app for the binaural sounds, I started to get bored of the same songs, and tried to see what other songs they have and they only have 18 sounds besides the 14 pure binaural sounds. To be opted into this app for a whole year and already bored of the songs after a couple weeks, and the app blocking doesn’t even work well, I’d say it was a waste of money and feels scammy. It has potential to be better, but it’s lacking.
Don’t use the free trail!!!

After this app was heavily marketed to me over the course of several weeks I finally decided to give it a shot. The result? Mistakenly getting stuck with an annual subscription. I attempted to cancel the same day it was charged and Apple refused to refund it. Super disappointing. The app serves no purpose for me because all you have to do is just unlock everything that is locked. So in short, you are just paying to use screen time, which is built into the iPhone, at no additional. At least with a screen time, you could ideally password protect the lockout or the downtime as they like to call it and you could give the password to override it to someone else in your household to keep you accountable. I’ve now spent $90 and haven’t opened the app once since my original trial. Don’t do business with companies who bet on the fact that you will forget to cancel your trial. If it was a good app and a good company, they wouldn’t have to lock you in to an annual subscription. Monthly? Sure. Forced annual subscriptions are scams! Don’t do it!

I was really moved by the advertisement for this app. I really only need these apps for blocking social media. The apps are blocked but if I log on to my web browser I can go to the social media website. My built in phone app blocker can block social media apps even from the web browser so it’s a shame this one couldn’t. I loved the idea of meditating to focus on spending less time on the phone but if the blocker isn’t strong, it defeats the purpose. If the developers can change this I would renew my subscription.
