It's important to note that as per users feedback this app has some major drawbacks as they keep on complaining about frequent failure rate, too much intrusive ads, manual intervene even after scheduling has been done (that is app works just like a reminder if you don't allow all the permissions), and shady requirements like turning off all security functions (such as biometric verification) to make the app work. Which makes the app a lot like a "trouble maker" instead of a problem solver.
