I use this to stop myself from playing one particular game. I'd like to be able to block that one game, rather than white list everything else, which is the only solution now. The other issue is that the digital detox screen comes up when you try to toggle between two (white listed) open apps. The only solution right now is to "reopen" the app to bring it back to the foreground. This despite the app already being open in the background. Otherwise quite good.

Hello Duane, we cannot allow "Recent apps" screen for you to switch between apps, because users misuse this screen to terminate the challenge. Hope it makes sense.

This app is changing my life, not exaggerating. ADHD+phone addiction has made my brain a mess of a place, and I've been desperate to find a way to train myself to focus and actually be present to my family again. I needed a way to block my access to the chrome app while still being able to use my phone for text messages, phone calls, calculator and calendar, etc. This delivers that with a great visual interface, easy to use, doesn't collect your data, and it's free - what a gift 😭💜 thank you!!

The app has been really great so far, however it won't let me use apps that I've already allowed during detox and it's been a major inconvenience. I'll open Firefox or Maps and it just suddenly closes out and blocks me from using them again. I still use my phone as a tool and I need it for work, so it's been very annoying when I have to use an emergency use just to access an app I've already allowed. Does it have anything to do with blocking the notification tray? I'd rate 5 stars if resolved.
