What's New in EvilEye

2.5.0

June 18, 2026

Small but big change! If you're on iOS 26.5 (or newer), you can skip the notification dance and go straight from the blocked app to EvilEye. Just tap the unlock button and the smile screen shows up right away. Thanks for following along with these little updates over the past few weeks. If EvilEye's been good to you, a quick review on the App Store would help us a lot. Thank you! We also love hearing your feedback and suggestions for new features.
