This app is so easy to use and has kept me from wasting time on my phone. It helps so much with my ADHD brain is attempting to get dopamine but also not do work. I highly recommend this. If you need a way to lock yourself and your phone while you are doing work or other things. It even has a feature that keeps me from unlocking myself so that I can't defeat the things I put in place. Definitely awesome. Worth the money I spent on it. I heard about it originally on the Multiamory podcast.

Solid app - one weakness is they do a very poor job of doing a comprehensive job of blocking adult sites. They don't seem to have anyone keeping a close eye on making sure the websites listed under the "adult" tab actually includes all the relevant sites, particularly the ones that are included in Google searches. But, combined with a "safe" browser (like spin on android) it can be an effective part of a blocking toolkit.

This helps curb my impulsiveness. I have this on all my devices and so whole hours of the day are set up to stay on point digitally. I combine this with covenant eyes, which has both accountability and url blocking, and they make a really good pair. Only increased functionality I can think of is to make the allowed-url list populate across devices so I don't have to set it manually on each one.
