    Get rid of your internet connection. Do you absolutely need it? Probably not. That's the only reliable solution. And you'll save money too.

    Glad if this has helped you! Isn't it risky to leave your devices in your car?
    Well, that would be my last last resort. It's useful to have internet connection at home. Other family member use it, although not for urgent things

    At the moment, this seems to work well
    I installed and finished configuring it. It's simply WONDERFUL! It detects every single application including Samsung Secure Folder. It seems to be the best app blocker I've tried until now!

    I am totally grateful! :-D Thanks everyone for your advice and suggestions, especially to @Vicit_fidem

    If at one point the app will stop being useful for me, I will consider more drastic options... But I hope this won't be necessary.
     

  3. Awesome! I am so happy for you :D If all my struggles up to this far have positively contributed to one other person, by finding that app, I am content.

    Onwards!!

  5. I think you might have misunderstood my comment, I wasn't asking you to provide a detailed budget, just what you are willing to spend. For example, if you only wanted to spend $5 a month then others could recommend apps within that price range instead of offering options outside of the price range that wouldn't work for you.

    Anyway, it sounds like you've found a good app for your situation! Congratulations!

    I asked because in my country, if you leave your devices in the car, is very probable you won't find them the next day... sadly

    Well, if you're in a market or any crowded places here, it's better not to have the phone or your money in the pocket
    You can use the app Vicit_fidem recommended :)
