What's New in Prune Screen Time
1.2.0
October 13, 2026
HARD MODE (Prune Pro) Make a Plan harder to back out of. With Hard Mode on, anything that would weaken a running Plan waits behind a short countdown first. That includes pausing it, removing an app, ending it early or deleting it. Adding protection is always instant. Choose the countdown length in Tools, from 10 seconds to 5 minutes, and decide whether it doubles with each unlock that day. Turn it on when you create a Plan, or from the Plan's page. NOW & NEXT WIDGETS See what's pruning right now and what starts next, right on your Home Screen or Lock Screen. Available in small, medium and large, plus every Lock Screen size. LIVE ACTIVITIES FOR PAUSES When you pause a Plan, its countdown appears on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, along with when blocking starts again. Tap Resume now to end the break early. A NEW TOOLS TAB Saved Locations and Hard Mode now have their own tab, and Settings is just your account. A CLEANER PLAN PAGE • Tap a Plan's name to rename it • See its status at a glance: Active now, Paused with time left, Starts in 3 hours, or Ended for today • Pause and Resume sit at the top right • Days, Time and Repeat each get their own row ONE LIST FOR EVERYTHING A PLAN PRUNES Every app, website and category in a Plan now appears in a single list.
