Terrible, definitely avoid.

Notifications are gone for every app that was hidden in full lock mode. No way to turn most of them back on without reinstalling each and every app on my phone. While it did its intended purpose in full lock mode, it ruined my phone afterwards. I would not recommend installing this app.

This is the worse app ever be extremely careful

This is my first ever review for an app. I have been looking for an app to help with my phone addiction if it was for concept itself i would give the app 5 stars, in the full down mode it keeps you away from the phone. The big problem is that when the lock down end your phone it erases all user settings and notification for every single app. It took me more than the 4 hours of lockdown to configure my phone back. Apple should provide this functionality on its next ios.

Keeps me committed

I have a problem with constantly being on my phone even at work. I needed something that I could not cheat or override and this was it. I put it in full lock down mode and all I can do is call or text. All social media, browsers and apps are totally hidden and inaccessible . Gets me off my phone. It was hard at first I will admit. I was even having anxiety issues but I have calmed down and kept with my lock down schedule. Thank you for helping me.

Serious issues with full lockdown mode

When using the full lockdown mode, it will undo all your folders. When the lock is done, all your apps will be out, if any were in folders, and in alphabetical order. You will have to reorganize your apps. It also appears to undo notification settings on all apps that were hidden. These will have to be redone too. It basically makes this mode unusable.

It was great until.. :/

So it was awesome. Completely blocked what I had set up for eight hours straight. The problem was it did it’s job too well. The next day the blocker was still on. And then the next day. I had to restart my phone to get it unblocked, which also forced me to redo all my contacts. Please, PLEASE fix that bug in the system that caused it to go past it’s time.

Decent

So far so good, except it did disorganize my apps :/

Not getting fully locked

So first day everything went well and I loved it but now it’s only the second day n it is not locking. I read the support to remove device manager and start over, i did it and still not working. I’m using the trial version now and was going to purchase it but now I’m not. Why should I pay for something that is not functional.

Decent but has room to improve

Flipd is great for what it does: keeps your phone on lockdown, so you can stop obsessively playing with it. However, there are a few times I would strongly urge the developers to consider that I think would make the app near perfect. 1. Manual Whitelist: Whether or not this is a slippery slope should be the user’s discretion. I need certain apps to study that are automatically blocked on Full Lock, such as Anki or Quizlet. It would be nice to have this ability to place all my games on Lock while still granting me access to my flashcards. 2. Have the icons in the same place when they return. Everything gets all scrambled up and all the notification settings are reset. This tests my patience. 3. There are times when my apps never return after my set time has expired, and I have to manually go into my settings to uninstall the profile. I am always connected to the internet, so I’m not sure what the problem is, but I hope this can be fixed. These problems are nearly enough for me to consider a different app, so I hope they will be taken seriously. Thank you.

Horrible!!

It messed my phone up!! I set the hard lock timer for 4 hours and 24 hours later it still hadn’t unhidden my apps! Eventually I had to go to an apple store to have it fixed This by far the worst app I’ve ever seen??

I originally downloaded this app to use the full lock feature but it won't allow me to download flipd organize for whatever reason. I have a bunch of apps and reorganizing all of them after using full lock is a pain. Other than that this app is great and really helps me focus on my work!
