Needs improvement

The app itself is a good idea, but its not working the way it should. Ive unlocked my phone several dozen times but it still says only 1 unlock. Also my score has been at a 0 all day long when I know Ive been using it constantly like the addict I am.

Just doesnt work.

Used my phone a lot today and it says 2 minutes. Just wrong.

Does not work

Im a cell phone addict and every time I check my stats it says I only unlocked once today. Sorry, wrong. Nice idea though.

Great app

This is a great app that has truthfully helped me reduce the amount of time I spend on my phone. If youre considering getting this app, do it - youll be shocked by how much time you spend on your phone. One bug complaint: the app has been freezing lately, and closing the app doesnt solve it. The only solution is to uninstall and reinstall, which I have done twice now. Please fix this!

It doesn t work

I stayed for 30 minutes and it shows up 16 hours. Good screen design but it is not accurate

Piece of garbage

The app does not work.

Was working then stopped

Kept track of number of unlocks and calculated an addiction score for 2 days. But after that, always froze on logo screen when opened and would crash. Would be really useful if it was working though.

Cool idea, bad app

The idea behind the app is really neat. I found it shocking how much Im on my phone. I bought the $1 upgrade, but it never worked. The app worked for me for about a month, but for the past week it hasnt even recorded any of my phone usage information. It also KILLS your battery just on background usage. Cool idea. Horrible app.

crashes

This app glitches and doesnt load for the iPhone, it only works for 2 days then glitches out. I needed it for a psych class and it didnt work for anyone with an iPhone.

Freezing

I love this app. Ive had my kids download it as well. But after two days of use it freezes and wont leave the title screen. I have had to re-download three times.

Waste Of Time and Battery!

Never worked properly the few times I tried to use it, sucked down my battery life, and now it wont even open and just crashes. Dont even bother.

Great idea, major bugs

I love the concept and the design but it has a lot of glitches and bugs. Hopefully an update will come soon! Dont pay for the $1.99 until then.

Doesnt work

App is great for the first day or so. There after the app crashes every time you try to open it.

Great concept- disappointing result.

I have been spending too much time on my phone, so I downloaded this. I think it would help me a lot if it would actually work. The app wants background refresh on, turned on cellular data, and gave it location access- but still wont open. If I could give it zero stars, I would.

Has Potential

This app has so much potential but at the same time, falls so short. It tracks how long Ive been on the phone, nothing else. It could tell me how long I spend in each app or talking and texting, but it doesnt. It also doesnt like to store the data. Each time I close out of the app for whatever reason, it restarts my clicks and minutes for the day at 0. Not at all helpful as closing out of the app whether by accident or dead battery is inevitable. The feature I really wanted cost an extra $1.99. Its basically a little timer that tracks how long youve continuously been on the phone and reminds you when youve been on too long. I set the thing for 15 minutes. At 15 minutes a notification popped up asking me if I still wanted to be on my phone. Yay! Just what Ive been looking for to drag me out of the rabbit hole that is the internet. As an experiment, I ignored it and continued reading. I was curious if itd go off again after another 15 minutes. The answer is no. So, while initially useful, it would be even more so if it notified me again when Id been on for another 15 continuous minutes and continued to do, kind of like a snooze button. While the design is adequate, its nothing to write home about. The app would definitely benefit from a graphics update. Perhaps make it a little more modern and sleek so it doesnt look quite so quickly thrown together. All in all, I just feel disappointed. I really wanted to like this app but it has too many flaws for me to recommend it to anyone at this stage. The possibility is there for a bright future though.

Settings Screen

Ill echo the sentiments of the previous reviewer: Ive changed the settings per the requirement, and it continues to tell me I need to do it.

doesnt work

concept gets five stars, but execution gets one.

Tracks activity

Good app that warns you when you are becoming too addicted to Your phone. My boyfriend and I are using it in a competition. Whoever uses the phone less, wins whatever they desire !!! Im gonna win for sure. Lost a star because it wouldnt pull up on my boyfriends phone On the second day and he had to Redownload which is annoying because his HIGH USAGE scores were ERASED.

Could be nice if it actually worked

I purchased this app (the upgraded version) about two months ago and it worked for three days. I keep looking for an update thinking maybe theyll fix it, but nothing. Wasted money. Not happy.

Do not download

It just froze. Wont even open anymore
