Wellspent: Replace Scrolling

Does not track anything, only says 0 minutes

It does not count the correct screentime, it stopped sending alerts, it froze a lot of times during set up, and I cant get Safari on any of my lista. Definitive not worth the money!

Appen er helt genial for deg som har en tendens til å scrolle en del. Etter 10 minutt avbryter appen meg og spør om jeg virkelig har lyst til å scrolle mer. Fantastisk konsept. Har ikke møtt noen bugs enda.

This concept is really cool, and it did help! Loved that they ask HOW they should notify you, the tone of voice, if they should be kind, strict, informative etc. My issue was that all sound on my social media apps disappeared while this app was installed, plus i couldn’t film anything (i only tried on instagram, though), it would not allow me, just take a picture when i pressed to hold the record button. I tried several times opening and closing the app to fix these issues, i tried removing the app from screen time, but only removing the entire app itself got rid of the problem, and it did so instantly after much frustration so i assume that was the cause. So that was frustrating as hell. I’d love to try this again if things actually work.

Woke up and needed to access a different App immediately only to find my screen locked. It took scrolling through several pages to unlock it when time was of the essence.

This app worked great the first week or two, my screen time decreased considerably, then I noticed I was not getting notifications consistently. The type of notifications also changed and they became much easier to simply click and bypass (used to be you had to press and hold- which I found much more effective in making me pause and choose to log off). I wrote customer service and was told there was nothing they could do. Then I stopped getting regular notifications. They only popped every 30 minutes even though I set it to 5 minutes. The ap stopped logging how much time I spent on social media. Then it stopped working for days or weeks at a time. Now the app is down completely while they work through “technical difficulties.” Yikes. Customer service has been unhelpful and will not process a refund. Do not waste your money on this app!

Ok so I was only using it for a week after I started paying for it and it was locking me out of the apps that I told it to restrict and I wasn’t on them for very long and I had no indication when I could access them again. Also time spent on the apps isn’t well calculated and I cannot go back and see the times from previous days. Just feel like $60 is not a justifiable price, just wish I would have fully realized that before the week was up.

I’m not sure what’s going on—I just got a notification saying they are “working on it” but the app hasn’t worked reliably in months. It was helpful at first but not anymore. I regret paying for the year subscription tbh so I turned off the renewal. It’s just confusing… some days it won’t notify at all (despite the app being open for sure and no other blocking apps conflicting with it) and other days it is relentless and annoying and I want to delete the app. I’ll keep trying it in an attempt to not feel like I’ve wasted my money completely but I don’t have much hope. 🫤

I wish it worked like they say it will but it does not.

Doesn’t work. Worked for a while, giving nudges that were effective, but doesn’t work anymore. It always says I’ve spent 10 minutes on social media, no matter how much time I’ve actually spent.
