What really makes this app shine is its beautiful UI... it also allows you to control adding breaks and controlling the strictness of the breaks.
This is a really good app for controlling screen time. I can't describe how much it has helped me control my excessive social media usage.
I usually don't leave reviews but this app is something I've been looking for - simple means to block apps and doesn't collect my data :)
Love this app and the time it's going to save me.
What separates this from other screen time apps are two things: the one break per hour, and strict mode.
Very happy with this app. UI is clean. Does exactly what's advertised. Nice flexibility with scheduling and ability to take breaks.
This is the perfect app to avoid picking up your phone and wasting time. Also very well designed and easy to use.
Much better than the iOS function below because you can cheat yourself less.
