  • Time waste

    Wasting time with a long unskippable “intro” sequence and cutscene, anti to what the apps goal is
  • Extremely effective

    Opal helps me so much. I’m a student and I always feel that I’m on my phone as a distraction. I’ve got to thank them for keeping me focus. The decrease in screen time has also let me have better sleep. The only issue I have is the app is slightly hard to navigate because there is so many different options for screen time, but other than that this app is legendary!
  • Finally deleted this useless app

    Now even to set a “Normal” block it’s asking me to pay.
  • Really Really Helpful

    I love this app for helping me to work on my screen time addiction! It works really well. The only thing I dislike is the gem reward system - it’s annoying and gimmicky and in my opinion, unnecessary. I wish there was a way to disable that system. Still definitely worth using the app though
  • Waste of money

    Yes i understand that it is strict and supposedly it’s unlike any other app, but truly it is NOT worth the $99 a year fee..
  • Get it.

    Just get it. It has seriously cut down my screen time. Within 2 days I stopped even thinking about going on these apps. And i love that it’s not full time because without my apps fully disappearing I realize I just don’t NEED it but can use it when it’s necessary
  • Not worth it

    Given that the only value I would get from this is app is locked behind a paywall, I’ll much rather discipline myself to avoid addiction to social media. They won’t let you block enough apps on the free version.
  • I liked the previous UI better

    The app was much more enjoyable to use when it was simpler to look at, now there’s all sorts of add-ons to scroll through and read on the Home Screen which has turned me off from using it. Also now when I request to take a break and there’s the animation of the flame going out and losing the streak, that just feels gimmicky to me. Please consider dialing the bells and whistles back, app was perfectly fine before!
