It stops at the limit but then it's easy to close game and start .I uninstalled it, but now it seems to continue closing games at the limit. How is that possible? Mess up my phone.

Q70%

The only problems with the app is a negative time in the ability to delete the app.

This app lets you restrict the TOTAL TIME spent on ALL DISTRACTING APPS per day. It's exactly what I wanted and it does the job perfectly. It's a little rough around the edges in terms of the UI but that's no problem at all.

Works as advertised and helps if your committed to it but it has major flaws, STILL WORTH GETTING THOUGH. There should be an option of preventing safe mode without parents knowing since its a trust system and all. With smart little kids who don't give hoot will do it regardless. Thuss there should be an option to lock the control app, prevent uninstalling, locking of individual apps like Settings and blocking of safe mode with at minimum a password or blocking it total. It should also block you the rest of the day if you try to access it. Over all so far it is a good app though. Makers if you need help on better functions for this app just ask. There should be 4 different control apps. Child, Teen (trust system), parent app and app to set a goal like using phone for 1 hour a day over a specified time or it controlling usage time by itself and only letting you in once a month to give the option off uninstallation.

It is a one of its kind app. Post the time limit, Blocks the apps well. But a critical bug is that it shows negative usage time.

Q70%
by Q####:

I like it. It can control base time. I wish it have time to change setting in password, so it will be lazy to change setting.

Despite time limits still has bugs and not user friendly

Do something about the negative time bug. It works perfectly otherwise.

Love how I can set a limit and my child can't use the apps I put a lock on once his time is up!

Q70%
by Q####:

It limits the combined time of all apps. It would be much better if you could have different time limits for different apps.

Q70%
by Q####:

I can't figure out how to devy up different time limits for different apps. It seems like I can choose one time limit, and add any app to that list or not at all. So that's way less useful than say 'max 5 mins on this. Max 30 mins on that' etc. Its nice but it could be way better with that key change.

Worked great yesterday, counting backwards(!) today. The more I am using the app, the more time I 'get' to still use it. Otherwise great app, but does not seem to be reliable, fix this and enable app specific limits and it's 5 star

U70%

This app allows you to set a single time limit on any number of apps. Once the total time spent in those apps reaches the time limit, they are blocked. You *cannot* set an individual time for each app. You can only limit total time spent on every selected app. There are also some spelling errors.

I would like to see protected uninstallation option and also Admin profile protected with a password. I have also foundout that the app cannot be installed on the tablet of my doughter. Anyway recommendations!

Z70%
by Z####:

exactly that I was looking for . update: doesn't work correctly. It starts to show - time like -263 minutes. Easy way to deceive app is changed date on phone.

It works well, but when we delete the app from rencent apps menu this app doesn't work anymore. Could you fix this?

This is a very simple app that meets our needs to limit our children's overall screen time perfectly.

Using it all the time

U70%
by U####:

It allows me to give the kids a little freedom but limit their wasteful screen time to an hour per day. The kids hate it, I love it! If your kid is able to uninstall the app you should be using applock to lock the settings and prevent uninstalling of applications. Applock blocks apps or settings you don't want children to have access to and this app gives them time limited access...best of both worlds! Very pleased.

U70%
by U####:

There is no protection from uninstalling the app. Simply go to options or Google store and uninstall the app. Please do something about that

V70%
by V####:

Liked the idea but the time kept reseting itself randomly. Like I wanted to set a limit for an hour. I would go check the time I had left after being on for awhile and it would say I had only been in for 5 minutes

U70%
by U####:

Does not work, after time out it is supposed to reset at 8:00 am it will time shoe reset time in 14 hours or x amount of time, but my daughter shuts the tablet down and 9 times out of 10 it reset set itself and she carries on playing laughing at this app. This app is horrible. And I am very frustrated as I can not find a good time limit app.
