Reviews
It doesn’t include USA School

No USA schools sadly. Also, you can test out the app without a school/college. I gave it 3 stars because it seems like a great concept and it is a free app that incentivizes breaking phone addiction.
Interesting idea. Poor implementation

It requires your place of study. I'm not a student. No way to exit that entry. It only allow selection of UK, Norway, Sweden. I'm in US. It requires you to have a passcode or thumb print. I can't imagine what an app like this would need that when I don't. Seems like it might be a good idea. But not enough to keep it.
I don’t have a university email

You have to be in university to be able to use this app so not everyone can use it
Please update it
LeprdGekoz
Please update the countries it has, please add the US and Canada instead of just UK, Norway, and Sweden.. the country options are very limited and have not been changed since I first found out about it about a month and a half ago.. very upset about the choices
Please add more countries
Hi...hi....hi
The US is not available and it won’t allow you to use the app unless you attend school in Norway, Sweden, or the UK
