Having to change my review from 5 stars to 1. The new update is so glitchy. I hate the new UX.It doesn't kick me off apps when I've reached the max time, or it tells me I've reached the max time when I've only opened that app once. I also really miss the widgets. My old review for reference : I love love love love love it. It's so good at blocking YouTube shorts, the bain of my life. And it works across websites too so you can't be sneaky and watch using the Web version. Love it!!

This app is so helpful for overcoming my very unhealthy behaviour with my phone. I love that I can set variable limits on usage of apps as I'm about to access them. I also enjoy seeing the quotes that pop up when an app has been blocked at bedtime; it makes it a more positive experience than seeing a blank screen. It is a great tool for better mental health.

Respect! Truly valuable app that can benefit anyone. Not only it allows you to block apps, specific webpages, groups of apps, etc. in multiple ways (daily limit, usage within time blocks, etc.) it is also very useful in making one aware of the time of life they are wasting. Also free and no ads. The only issue is that if I turn blockers on/off a lot, the app starts getting confused and "disobeying" me. New gamification is ok, but the point system should be reversed to benefit the user, not usage
