Strict Mode provides a range of options to keep you on track, ensuring you stick to your goals without the temptation to easily turn off your blocks.
Additional Options:
You can also choose from additional options to define what will be blocked during Strict Mode:
Important: Be careful and make sure you have the correct settings before turning on Strict Mode, especially if it’s your first time. This will help prevent unintentional blocking of an app or website for too long, as you may not be able to unblock it once Strict Mode is activated.
Starting with iOS 16.4, you can now use the built-in search feature in the blocklist to find Safari or other system apps. This makes it easier to select and block apps that aren’t immediately visible in the list (without searching first). Please keep in mind that blocking Safari entirely will override any keyword blockings you have set up.
Additionally, Safari blocking won’t be effective if you are using the Allowlist feature.
