Like the others said, if they figure out to shut the phone off it does allow the phone to be used for a few minutes untill it locks again. Also, you should be able to make it lock for longer. Other than that it's a great app. I would even pay a few dollars if the two small issues were changed.

It works to lock and unlock, but the phone can only be locked for a short time. For it to make any sense there should be a feature to lock the phone until manually unlocked

Excellent please keep it this way. Helps to sort out the biggest addiction problem with kids. Now I don't hide phone nor argue with kids...thanks to your app I give it to them with love and post that your app makes the magic.Thanks a lot. Kids become more aggressive if we don't give. Thats sorted out.

the system works fairly well, only issue is after the kid restarts the phone it's free for 3 to 5 minutes before it locks again. if this could be fixed, 5 star app for sure

Perfect it did what I wanted to do except that the locking time maximum is 120 minutes, I would give it five stars if the locking Time can be customized in hours for example to be 12 hours or 6 hours

Useless. All I need is a remote phone locker to lock my son's phone when I need his attention and we are not together. All he has to do is turn off his phone and this app shuts down. Every time he turns his phone back on, I have to re-pair the phones for the to work. Not very useful when we are not together... Samsung Note 9
