AppBlock does not work after entering Safe Mode

When your Android phone is in Safe Mode, all third-party apps — including AppBlock — are disabled. Blocking will not work while Safe Mode is active.

Why this happens

Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that loads Android with only system apps. Because AppBlock is a third-party app, it cannot run in Safe Mode.

What to do

Restart your phone normally to exit Safe Mode. AppBlock will resume working once your device boots back into normal mode.

Good to know

If you didn’t intentionally enter Safe Mode, it may have been triggered accidentally — for example, by holding the power button in a certain way during restart. To exit, simply restart your phone normally.
