Nice app.. The best thing about the app is that it does not unblock any app till the time is over..Really helpful in making distance with the phone :p and to focus on other important things...

I love love the "Phokas" app and its concept. However I'd like to suggest a few ideas. 1. Maybe if you can, make an add free version and set a price in the play store (I'd be willing to pay! This app helps me study). 2. Use less of the pop up adds and more of those funny memes or like a picture of a circle with a big X through it each time the person clicks on the app that they have blocked. Just a thought. :) 3. Maybe, put a banner or notification on the lock screen of the phone when this app is in us

I selected the apps I wanted to block, but when I went to the "timer" page, nothing. Blank screen. Never blocked anything for me.

After selecting the apps I wanted to block, went to the timer page, NOTHING, absolutely nothing there. Just a blank page. How am I supposed to block anything when this thing won't even activate.

Phokas is one of the best apps and really does help me focus on my work.... but it has often happened that I set a timer for some particular time and it shows that it is in 'queue' but it DOES NOT begin at the scheduled time and remains in queue!! Then I have to uninstall and reinstall it again.. Please fix this!!!!

It became impossible to use. Every time I entered, I would get pop ups advertising other apps. This is fine - they need to advertise, I get it. But the ads don't stop...click on the X to close it, or even download one of the suggested apps, but they keep popping up EVERY SECOND. It's like a virus in terms of constant interruption to the point where it impedes usage of the app. I'd rather just pay two bucks and have something add free I can actually use.

This app is good, but one should not be able to uninstall it when timer is running. Then the whole point of this otherwise awesome app is lost.

Poping up meme is really an innovative way to tell one to get away from distractions and getting back to work ASAP...When I try to violate my own set ground rules and try to check fb and whatsapp...I am left with a funny feeling and more inspired to focus on what's important..Really a very Nice App... Working fine on my HTC.

Once i clean or kill the app from the task manager or clean master, it looses control over the apps. The blocked apps start working properly even though time is left. Try nd fix that. And there should be a give up button that lets you use the apps before time in case of emergency. Otherwise quite a useful app.

For all apps it just makes the phone silent and turns off data/WiFi. Useless app.
