Busy NY Trooper Surgeon

this app helps me relax when I am home with my family. I am a physician and I have been working tirelessly over the last many months. When I get home I am usually exhausted and before having this app I would choose to surf Facebook, and my timeline would be full of concerning updates related to COVID-19. After a long day of work, this was not how I wanted to spend my time.

Extremely helpful

this app is extremely helpful in making me realize how often I go on social media during “breaks” in my day. I use it during the school year and finals, and specifically, lock time allows me to stay focused for longer. this app is intuitive and easy to use, and is an easy way to start controlling your phone and social media usage.

Absolutely love this

This app makes life easier for people who find themselves wasting a lot of time on their phones when they’re supposed to be productive/working. I know it helped me a lot with that while I was studying for finals! I would recommend this to anyone who’s been trying to lower their screen time recently. Great place to start!
