App blocking is here. Miss a snack and the apps you choose lock until you've done one. Pick them in Apple's own picker - we only ever learn how many you chose, never which ones - and everything unlocks when your snack window ends, snacked or not. • Two levels. Standard gives you ten minutes' grace, and snoozing the snack lifts the lock. Strict locks the moment the snack is due, takes Snooze away, and holds until the window you committed to has ended. • A strip on the home screen tells you what's locked and why, and starting a snack from there unlocks straight away. • Screen Time access and nudges both have to be on. If either is switched off later, blocking stops and says so - your chosen apps and settings are kept. • App blocking is part of Exercise Snacks Pro. Also in this release: your schedule can no longer be saved with today's window already behind you, and problem reports now spell out exactly what they attach. Thanks for snacking with us. Keep moving!
