This is the app is perfect to break your smartphone addiction. I really like the self manage option for preventing app removal. I request the devs to do something similar for the boomerang app. I have purchased premium versions of both however I am not able to use boomerang properly as I only have this device. The pricing for manage SPIN is just right (any higher would reduce value) and I have been looking for something like this since a long time.
Would be an outstanding app, but after going through setup multiple times, I still haven't seen an option to turn on accountability mode. Also, too easy to just uninstall the app and do what you want. There should be a token request for that as well.
I love the app it helps me and anyone else who wants to avoid apps that search the web or act a a mini web browser and not have a filter. It helps me with my relationship with GOD. Yes you cant use the Google app to change setting but when you open google assistant and get it to show your profile google profile pic then click on it then settings and you get to just the settings for the Google app. You may not get to all of the settings the you can see in the google app. It was good enough for me
Update : 6/14 the issue has resolved itself. The developers were not able to identify the issue which is slightly concerning. i have updated to four stars. After the latest update it seems the app has stopped functioning, even the free services. I dont kniw what happened but I have tried everything support has recommended.
I just wanted to express my deepest gratitude for the Boomerang and ManageSPIN apps. What the developers did is amazing. I have tried countless hours to circumvent the security mechanisms and nothing has worked so far. I can genuinely say I feel safe on my phone again. I just wish there was a program that worked just as well on computers :(
It is a great app even the free edition is quite handful, but currently no issue I find - * it can't filter Google image search results in SPIN browser, Although I'm a premium * There should be a feature like the app called app lock stay focused. * Block apps that offer nsfw content
After installing this app and giving it all the permissions necessary, it somehow made my default text messaging app completely unusable, crashing every time i open a conversation. I have no idea how it did this but I've been completely unable to fix it after trying everything.
Really good piece of software! Solid and airtight implementation. Just one question: Is it possible to hide the notification so that Manage Spin would be running completely in the background? The notification is mildly annoying. Other than that superb job! 👌🏻
Great app.-- This app. does a tremendous job at a very reasonable cost. I agree with Troy--a feature needs to be employed that blocks the factory reset. Because once you tap on factory reset all safeguards are deleted and you must reinstall the spin app.
This is a great compliment to the spin browser I am using. It is effective and simple. Customer service ready and concerned to reply. As in my case, I had a usability question regarding app and I was contacted back surprisingly quick. Obviously, this group cares about their users.
This app works amazingly. Google sometimes removes it because it's difficult to uninstall, but that's part of the point. You just have to have an accountablity partner who has the password and then you can uninstall.
This is by far the best filtering app of the lot. It's really improved my life and keeps me on the straight and narrow. So thank you for such a wonderful app. Note for Google: STOP TAKING IT OFF THE PLAY STORE. Your app can't compete.
I originally reviewed this app some 6 months ago and I could always bypass it one way or another. I now have a Samsung Note 10 and I am happy to see KNOX integration which prevents safe mode, this now makes this app invaluable for me and it shows that the developers are committed to helping break a horrible addiction as well as making the net safe for kids.
This app is very good but one problem. The problem is that I can easily uninstall the app by clicking allow button. I would suggest you blocker X (app) method of preventing uninstalling. Blocker X method of preventing uninstalling is effective. I hope you would make required changes in the next update.
Excellent !👍 blocks from using chrome and popular browsers. If you want to use filters on chrome then you need to upgrade to premium. Which is fair. Thanks!
worked well for the first day and I could use Chrome okay. after restarting the phone, chrome cannot start and keep closing down. Not sure why? Thinking stopping the free trial.
App is perfect but it is a paid app, not a free one, and it should be stated on the Play Store. Free tools are *literally* useless without the paid functions.
Brilliant tool, blocks everything inappropriate for children and it still works if you use a separate VPN app it still blocks what it should. But it won't block apps that have an internal browser so be aware.
Is it possible to prevent factory reset? With the app locking and browser blocking features in this and Boomerang, all that is left now is the ability for someone (or owner) to do a factory reset and bypass everything.
Had the app for a week . The protection keeps shutting off . Email them about it . Try out what they said . Its works perfectly as long as i not on my phone.
Works fantastic! If you are looking to put a restriction on yourself so that you don't compulsivity go to problematic websites for you, this is the app for you.
Please improve the spin browsers. Its very old fashioned. Dark theme. it's also missing the home button. Please make it more like cm.browser.
i will say a small problem of this app .activate this app . an icon pop up all other browser are blocked.to bypass it, install opera and chrome .disable chrome . after that you can use internet from opera
Its a great app but i wish it has a feature where you can block all sites except for the ones you excluded. Please consider this.
This could easily be the best browser. Manage Spin has some amazing options. The problem is it seems to work fine for a few days when you first install it, then it lags. Sometimes it even crashes. You lose all your browsing tabs. It has no back button, which is a weird safe browsing feature. It will exit out of one tab while you are browsing in another tab. It wont allow you to open web pages in other apps like gmail, reddit or even messenger sometimes. They can fix these issues and be the best.
