| 2025-01-02 |  | | Lovely interface and rather simple to set up. My phone usage has definitely decreased since using this app. However, it does get glitchy sometimes. It would be great it there was a feature where you could see your progress/screen time beyond 7 days too! |
| 2024-11-15 |  | | life saving for me finally i can do some work as an adhd patient |
| 2024-07-29 |  | | I wish I could rate this app better because It has great features and a nice design. The thing is: it doesn't work properly. It completely overestimates my screen time! For example: today I was 5 minutes on instagram, and Zario says it's been 30 minutes. Now, my 1 hour limit that I set for myself is halfway used up. I unfortunately have to deinstall the app again. |
| 2024-07-08 |  | | So now we're forced to train AI models to unlock our apps? Absolutely disgraceful. I'm trying to use my phone less, not more. And I don't want my attention monetised. Immediately uninstalled when I saw that. Response to dev: Your previous system, where you are forced to wait, or to press and hold the lock, was *far* more effective to me. If you gave me the option to switch off the AI training, then I would be fine with it. But you chose, instead, to forcibly monetise my attention. |
| 2024-07-07 |  | | Pretty good! Initial impressions: could use some accessibility things, like the font is all washed out and grey on sign up so it's hard to see. I would love it if I could schedule sessions with just whitelists and there's a few other things. I'll update this as I try it out norem |
| 2024-07-04 |  | | It's a really like really great app for screentime control I really like the features |
| 2024-06-25 |  | | When the app works, it does exactly what I want it to. Unfortunately the app struggles to register when I open an app. I think it has something to do with battery optimization forcing it down but idk. If they fixed it, it'd be 4-5 star. Edit: after returning to the app, I now can't access it without a pro subscription (or at least the app seems very geared towards making it seem that way). Its nice to see that they have new features but I can't tell you anything about them. Just use stayfree. |
| 2024-06-10 |  | | The zario app is quite useful.It assists you in achieving your desired goal of minimal screen usage.Everytime you get the temptation of using the app mindlessly ,Zario prevents you . |
| 2024-05-20 |  | | Absolutely freaking amazing, was utterly blown out of the water by the quality and the extent to which the developers actually want to help you. Amazing work |
| 2024-04-13 |  | | It has all the right features I wanted but minor flaws in implementation make them useless. Can't whitelist apps for focus mode. Can't set per app limits. Lot of faff & bloat with XP & leaderboard challenges etc. Just allow manual control of the good features you have, and focus on implementing those with quality, instead of building more bloat. |
