What's New in ScreenZen

4.0.0

September 6, 2026

• Practice: swap a bad habit for a good one. Breathe, journal or learn something, and earn your opens. • Minimal: use Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit and more without Reels, Shorts or endless feeds, with messages-only options. • Lock settings: choose a time your settings unlock, and add an accountability partner who can let you back in. • Daily goal: set a screen time budget for your whole day, then open any day to see where the time actually went. • Scroll zone: a new Halo mode where your apps only unlock in one spot, so scrolling is intentional. • Habit: pair a Halo with something to do instead of your phone. One prompt when you arrive, and a week tracker for the days you did it. • A new screen time widget for your Home Screen and Lock Screen. • Many fixes to blocking, unlock timers, streaks and Live Activities, plus general stability and performance improvements.

Worst app

This app is blocking muse app and other apps even without any restriction. Even when we chose different apps it is directly affecting other apps.

Thank you!
