Apps should be blocked but I can still access them
If your apps should be blocked but you can still access them, please refresh the blocking settings within the AppBlock app to resolve the issue.
Here’s how:
For AppBlock version 3.7.0 and older:
- Open AppBlock: Launch the AppBlock app on your device.
- Navigate to the Blocking Tab: Tap on the “Blocking” tab.
- Pull to Refresh: Swipe down on the screen to refresh. A “Blocking refreshed” notification will appear at the bottom once completed.
For AppBlock version 3.8.0 and newer:
- Open AppBlock: Launch the AppBlock app on your device.
- Navigate to the Blocking Tab: Tap on the “Blocking” tab.
- Tap the Refresh Icon: Tap the refresh icon in the top right corner to update your blockings.
This refresh process should help enforce the blocking settings, ensuring that apps are properly blocked according to your schedules. If the refresh does not resolve the issue, please contact our support and send us a short video (max 20MB) showing your blocking settings, so we can assist you further.
