What's New in DelayLock
1.1
October 14, 2026
• What this session is for: pick or add a reminder before you start, keep it on screen, and check it off when you finish. • Focus and break cycles: alternate focus with short breaks and take a long break after a few rounds. Blocking pauses during breaks. • Scheduled blocking and blocking groups: set working hours and breaks by weekday, and the selected group is blocked automatically. • A simpler app: the daily workbench and reminder editor are gone, and permissions now live under Me, with a shortcut to Settings for anything you declined.
