Ever Accountable - Full Safety

2/5/26 update: it’s been two full days and it’s still not working as intended. When I unlock the apps everything locks back up in 3 seconds while it’s still broadcasting. I get a message saying to open the app to unlock and broadcast when the broadcast is still going. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I HAVE APPS TO USE. The app basically bricks your phone the moment you give it permission. I shouldn’t have to whitelist basic and necessary apps to use my phone. You have to start a screen record broadcast to use any app not whitelisted. The AI that “monitors” your screen will flag ANYTHING that is slightly inappropriate. Basically, your accountability partner will be notified and sent a screenshot for anything they flag as inappropriate. This is not building trust, this is invasion of privacy and ultimately leads to questions from your partner on what you’re doing. The screen broadcast lags my phone, and adding it as a widget does nothing to make unlocking my apps faster. And randomly, you’ll unlock the apps and then after 3 seconds, all the apps lock back up while you’re still sharing your screen. So what’s the point of this stupid feature that doesn’t work. I understand trying to to quit p**n but my goodness you do not need to lock my phone down. If I could leave this with 0 stars I would. The owner seems so proud in his “why” video. This is not something to be proud of. Especially if you’re charging a monthly subscription.

When the app is working, it’s pretty great. After seeing many reviews, it seems like the random disconnections is just a general issue with the VPN and this needs to get fixed asap. It happens literally every single day, when it happens, my car play freezes, the internet doesn’t work and 8/10 time, I have to restart my phone. And it doesn’t even have to do with low internet signal because it mainly happens when I’m with full 5G bars. It’s beyond frustrating, it always happens in the most inconvenient situations too. I’ve been hesitant for MONTHS to write a bad review on an app that has truly helped me through my recovery but it just doesn’t make sense why this keeps happening every single day and it gets to a point where it’s beyond frustrating and tiring. I shouldn’t have to keep turning my phone off and back on every single day so that the VPN can work again and not freeze up my whole phone.

Overall, this app is my favorite out of all the accountability apps. Just some kinks I find annoying. The app will randomly kick you out throughout the day and it won’t save your login info. Which isn’t that big of a deal. I’ve had to uninstall and reinstall the app many times, and when I go to sign back in as the accountability partner it starts taking me through the sign up Process. So you get stuck…maybe have a clear “accountability partner login” page? It also bothers me how many settings the user has access to be able to change under the radar. Unless you look at their account on their phone. I don’t mean for this to sound negative and that I wouldn’t recommend the app. I do actually! If these kinks were fixed it would be downright perfection :)
