Hello,
I’m a regular user of your app and truly appreciate the way it helps me stay focused.
I’d like to suggest adding the option to block custom websites, not just those from the predefined list. This would significantly improve the flexibility of the app and allow users to block specific distracting sites that are currently not supported.
Thank you for your attention and the great work on the app!
Best regards,
Nicolas
hey @mdor,
Happy to help. How you can block a website depends on what browser you are using on your phone. First up, to clarify, I’m afraid that it’s not always possible to block websites via third-party browsers (including Chrome, Firefox, Ecosia, etc), but you should be able to block websites on iPhone’s native Safari web app:
If you want to block via a third-party browser, we’d recommend setting up that block using your Allow List. That way, only the apps and sites you select will be available, and everything else will be blocked:
If you instead mean that you are unable to find a specific website in your app/website picker screen, I’m afraid our app/website picker screen is generated by Apple, and unfortunately, we’re unable to amend anything that appears there on your behalf. That said, we have some workarounds that you can try here:
I hope that helps,
Team Opal
