Great 👍🏼

Would be cool if the distracting app time limit had an added type whereby instead of limiting the total number of hours used in a day, we could limit the number of times we’re allowed to open an app per hour. During moments where I don’t have work to do but don’t want to spend the time mindlessly closing and reopening my social media apps, it would help by forcing me to find something more mindful to occupy myself with.

Most Useful App

I downloaded it after seeing some advertisements. But this app worked better than my own iphone screentime app limit. It has helped to prevent me from opening apps like instagram during work time and it worked so well to keep me focus! Amazing app!

Helpful!

I installed this app to better focus on my studies and block out distractions, this has helped me! I like their features, the only thing, you only get a break of 15 minutes. Would like it if you increase the break time! Other than that, It’s a good app🤍🫧
