Detox Reviews

This idea is a good idea for an app, unfortunately I didn’t get to use it because it costs money to use Detox . Seriously, why would I download Detox when it costs me less to scroll on instagram on my own. The idea is useful in theory however in practice it’s just another way to add a subscription service to your never ending list of purchases. I know it has very low cost in short term but i’d rather mediate my screen time myself than waste money using an app that is going to simply restrict my phone more. I think its even funnier how they make you complete an “oath” to lowering your screen time to manipulate you into a commitment before telling you that it costs money so you’re like “well I already made the oath and it’s only a few dollars”

I have been using the this app app for a month or so, having paid for a year. It worked great and was very helpful. Then one day it just kept crashing over and over, not letting me into my social media that I had it limiting time on. I deleted Detox , reloaded it, then it refused to recognize me, wanting to charge me for another year. There was no place to sign in. This is a racket… and the new yearly fee went from $40 up to $55. Yep. Just no.

Listen. I got Detox because I felt like “hey I can work on my scrolling,” until I found out that it costs money? It tells me all these statistics about me relating to my time on the phone. But at the same time, why do I need to spend money to work on my screen time. The morality of it is a bit, twisted. It’s such a good concept, and it’s now being slapped with a dollar sign. It’s just a bit disappointing.

I got this when it was just called filos and all of a sudden the same and icon has changed. I almost deleted Detox cause I thought it was a waste of time! But other than that Detox is amazing. It limits my doomscrolling to however long I allow (40min) and then I have more time for more important things 💕good things to say, only wish they would have warned of the name change.

I love Detox and it has greatly reduced my screen time, unlike the screen time limits on iPhone which are easy to ignore. My only wish is that there was an option to set a block schedule. Like if I want to be able to block all social media apps from 8pm-6am, for example. The "Timer Block" and "Block until Tomorrow" are almostttt helpful. But I have to actively select those, as opposed to something that blocks automatically and gives me no choice but to stop scrolling and put my phone down.

I’m normally too strong for screen time apps (i’ll overpass the blocks and delete the restrictions) but Detox is perfect for me. Not letting me scroll for a five minute break is the perfect amount of time to stop what i’m doing and get off my phone. Highly recommend!!!

Detox has been phenomenal for me. I was struggling with staying focused during midterm season and this has helped me drastically cut down on procrastination. It single handedly saved my exams.

Detox helped me a ton. Being able to have some control over distracting apps, it bettered my screen time and even well being. More importantly having a digital this app is super important and Detox does just that.

Before downloading Detox I didn’t realize how much time I spent uselessly scrolling through my phone, Filos really helped control my screen time usage and definitely helped my procrastination and gave me a well-needed digital this app.

Filos isn’t just another app that I download and forget about. It’s actually impossible to forget about Filos. It keeps you disciplined and helps you achieve your goals effectively. I’ve cut down my screen time on Tiktok and Instagram by 50%.
Every morning, those apps are blocked unless I open Filos to unblock them. It’s justtt enough hassle for me to get up and start my day instead of doom scrolling tiktok first thing in the morning. Detox is now literally a part of my daily life.
Go Filos!

I never thought that high phone usage had that big of a negative impact on my well-being until I started using Filos. As soon as the time I spent on distracting apps started to decrease, I felt a lot better, happier and had more time to do fun things

The amount of time I was spending on my phone had really begun to have a negative impact on my mental well-being. A friend of mine noticed this and recommended I download Filos, and this amazing app’s impact has been tremendous. Filos has helped me to reduce my screen time and procrastination, allowing me to complete my tasks each day more effectively and efficiently. So glad that Detox was recommended to me, and would 100% recommend it to anyone else struggling with time management and needing a digital this app.

Before downloading Detox, my screen time would average around 8-10 hours a day. It’s especially hard since I’m a college student, so I need to use my time wisely. After downloading Detox, my tine has reduced to 2 hours most. It helped me tremendously, I could do so much through out my days now!

I had a big problem with my screen time. I was constantly scrolling through reels on instagram and tweets on X. I found other cool solutions out there that had different ways to block my phone. What was nice with Filos though is that it didn’t offer me many different blocking solutions but rather suggested the best one. It’s anti-doomscrolling feature is really effective. I am seriously considering getting the premium version

Im a college student and often find myself scrolling mindlessly through social media procrastinating. It takes away the little time I have. I feel like a full digital this app, cold turkey would be too much. I think Detox is a good compromise, it lets me stay in touch with friends and enjoy some screen time while letting me actually enjoy my free time.

I didn’t know about Filos until a friend recommended it to me. I used to always scroll endlessly on my phone and lose track of time. But by setting time limits and reducing my screen time, I’ve noticed my well being greatly improve. Eventually reducing my screen time to a minimum, Filos has made this a much easier process.

I’ve always struggled with procrastination. I’ve tried deleting apps, putting my phone in different rooms, and many other methods I saw online. Nothing worked. Detox helped me combat my procrastination much more. After using Detox, my well being has been so much better and I’ve been overall much happier. I recommend Detox to whoever struggled with the same things I did, it’s well worth it.

First off, Detox does everything I wanted it to do. I’ve been looking for an alternative to these other apps like opal where I get a sleek UI and good features. I want to be able to block my apps and stay on top of things but not pay egregious amounts.

Ever since I downloaded filos, my screen time has dropped 20% week over week giving me back literally over an hour a day.

I downloaded Detox with the intent of saving time where I could, but I got so much more. Detox does exactly what you need it to with countless customizations of how much it blocks, and even if there is a shortcoming, I can say from personal experience that the dev team is a pleasure to chat with, and will do whatever they can to help. In my opinion, Detox is a MUST to download, and the cost is well worth the time saved.

I recently started using Detox, and it has had a significant impact on my productivity and helped me procrastinate less as it helps me stay off those apps that make time fly by without even realizing it. Detox 's user-friendly interface make it easy to manage tasks and stay on top of the things I have to do throughout the day.
