Maybe i just dont know how to work the app but whenever i click on “Add new” and click any of the options it doesn’t work which frustrates me. the only thing it lets me use is to block apps but only in a certain area which irritates me. It still block the app which is good but i dont want it only blocked in one place? its a good feature and is useful in some cases, but im forced to use it since i cant use the “add new” part. ### 3/5 — Needs faster and better quality *2025-12-11, version 1.6* So l blocked an app and a few hours go by, l need to use the app, l turned the blocker off but it's still blocked, l had to delete the app to use the app again. ### 2/5 — Why did u change it? *2025-12-04, version 1.6* It used to work so well for me until u changed it and now the whole thing sucks.
