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.

Bug alert: we can watch youtube videos in google's video tab even if video off for detox browser and even when youtube is blacklisted . Also I want to block only certain apps, browsers, and games, which work totally fine. But the detox screen overlay appears every time i open my phone. In my lock screens too . Which i find quite annoying 😑. It's so annoying, I just want to remove it sometimes. I wish it only showed me the detox screen if i try to open the blocked apps. Please do something 🙏

Hello Sagar, such an arrangement would be too prone to loopholes. Covering all the content is the only reliable way to prevent you from using blocked content.
UPDATE: Could you please use the Left ≡ menu → (?) Support → Report a bug, ideally right after you reproduce this? Thank you.

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!!
