BLOCK OR ALLOW Choose specific apps, websites, or categories with Apple’s system picker. Use a block list to restrict selected items, or an allow list when you want a more focused device. MAKE UNLOCKING INTENTIONAL Choose how a plan can be paused: unlock normally, prevent temporary unlocking, or complete a challenge first.
