"It is not working properly on Xiaomi . I had this app on another droid and it was good. But now it shows me 7 hours of YouTube ( I was at work and watched only one 15 mins video , then 5(!) Hours on NOTES?! I am really annoyed"
"Aqui funciona muito bem. Monitora meu tempo de tela e me serve demais como alerta."
"هناك مشكلة في التسجيل ؟؟؟؟؟ error bad gatway"
"incredibly useful app that i have been using for over a year but has recently reset all of its data for no reason which is annoying!"
"muito bom Esse app ele tira mesmo o vício em rede social ."
"I thought the idea of this would be great to see if it would help me decrease the usage of my phone. Not sure if it would help in that because I've only opened the app once and then closed it since I didn't have time to register. Since then the app randomly starts itself up in the middle of whatever I'm doing and just now when uploading some videos it opened itself 5 times back to back after I kept closing it. I don't care how good an app is at what it's supposed to do if it's going to self start whenever it pleases. Not impressed at all."
"It doesn't collect all the data it says it does"
"I love the idea of this app and its features. However, I've had it for over a week and it still doesn't have any data collected for my top apps. It says to come back in 2-3 days every time I check. Very disappointed because I wanted to track the time I spent on apps."
"Seems like a great application. I was unable to register though, it said Error: internal server error"
"Can't register..."
