Why can I still access apps/websites that should be blocked?

If apps or websites that should be blocked are still accessible, here are a few steps to troubleshoot:

  1. Check Your Blocking Settings:
    • Schedules: Make sure a schedule is active and correctly set to block the intended apps or websites.
    • Quick Block: Confirm Quick Block is enabled if you’re relying on it to block everything temporarily.
  2. Check Permissions:
    • Accessibility Permissions: For website blocking, AppBlock needs specific permissions.
  3. Check Troubleshooting: Go to the troubleshooting section in settings to make sure all required permissions are granted.
  4. Restart Your Phone: Restarting can often help if the blocks aren’t functioning as expected.
  5. Reinstall AppBlock: Reinstalling can refresh settings and resolve lingering issues.
