The app works great, but there's one serious flaw with it. If you block a website and the top opened tab in your browser is that website (that is, you automatically visit this website when you open the browser), then this app no longer allows you to open your browser! And you can't close the offending tab, because you can't open the browser. At least, this is what happens with Firefox.

Update: changing from 3 to 5 stars, this app has done nothing but consistently improve! A+ :) This the best free one out there right now, but it does have its issues. No way to turn off usage reminders in the app, and when I have Firefox actively blocked and accidentally go to open it, it will cause Firefox to open a whole bunch of new tabs, and get stuck trying to close the app. I've had upwards of 80 tabs opened. Very annoying. If they fixed those it'd be 5 stars.

I have used this app for a long time now. I used to be able to use all of the app fine, I remember I had payed for all the features. But I wake up and it it suddenly showing me an ad and there's a "fReE tRiAl" in the corner. It is now subject to the predatory payment that all mobile apps have. In the time that I have used this app, not once have I seen a new feature be added. The app also doesn't need servers. There should be no recurring costs. No reason for subscription.
