Confusing and not very functional – Entrain Review

Very confusing to use. I was hoping to use this app to counter long jet lag adjustments on my trips between Eastern and Western countries. Unfortunately I’m so confused about the time notation, and it makes me feel quite stupid. If I’m following correctly, the the app is simply suggesting that I avoid light for 12 hours and avoid dark for 12 hours each day for about 4 days, and then (hurrah!) my schedule is complete. BUT the daily suggested schedule is only maybe 30 minutes off my final target sleep/wake times. Really? Maybe the schedule is this way because of the complete reversal of day/night in Eastern and Western countries, but I didn’t need an app to tell me to just force myself to be awake during the day and asleep at night to adjust. OR maybe I’m a complete dunce and I’m reading the time notation wrong. If that’s the case, how does being awake at night for days on end somehow magically help me adjust in 4 days. Its just a little muddled and unclear in the delivery. The jet lag on these trips can be so brutal and stubborn, I was hoping for something more gradual and merciful- like maybe how I can intelligently work in naps or shorten/lengthen my night time sleeping.... it definitely was not so. But then again... nothing about a West to East transition is that way, so maybe my expectations were simply unrealistic.
