Ratings and Reviews
Best app I have found so far for reducing screen time.
It’s not perfect, but it’s the best out there. There are some bugs to be fixed tho
Major bug
The app worked at first, I got excited and I found it very useful, until a window popped up saying “screenzen would like to add vpn configuration” it gives the option to not allow so i didn’t (as i dont rally know what it eants and i dont want any virus on my phone etc tho i realized the app might not work without it but it wasn’t clear!!!) this message froze on my phone , the screen under switched on and off but not on my command and it didn’t react to touch at all! I tried turning the phone off but i couldn’t. My phone was complitely dead with the allow dont allow buttons in front of me, i could push them but they didnt do anything i even allowed it. After warching videos about it on another device i could restart the phone with the help of the side buttons but it took a while. THIS WAS SCARY AND NOT FUNNY AT ALL!!! If the app has such special needs than communicate it clearly!!! And explain these functions to those who dont get it DONT FORCE ME TO PUSH A BUTTON the app can say it wont work without it but it didn’t say anything like that it just gave no option and then froze. I wasted half on hour on this problem.
This app has potential, congrats to those who had the idea it COULD BE useful so FIX this. 🙄
Developer Response ,
Hi, we've been experimenting with the vpn. If you reinstall the app, it should lead you through the process to setup the Shortcut. I would try that and hopefully that will work for you. On the VPN page (as a bonus feature) there should be an option to "skip" now so this shouldn't be an issue anymore if you don't want to use it. Thanks. Please let us know at contact@screenzen.co
