I love the app as itā€™s helped me really be more productive during the work day and drastic sleeping improvements but I would like to see Maps and Spotify negatively effecting my score.

#435

Thank you we are working on this at the moment, will be available by end of the month.

#436

Example is:
I work remote and use Teams, outlook, zendesk, etc. from my phone.

I would like to not be able to access certain apps while getting a more accurate reading of how focused I actually was.

Totally clear. This feature is coming in next weekā€™s update!

This is now live! @here
With the latest app release, you can now edit your Focus Score and Decide which apps distract you and which help you be productive..
Here is a little preview

To access this screen - make sure you have updated your Opal app (v.3.16), go to the Score tab, and hit :pen: Edit on the top menu bar.

You will be able to choose which apps are distracting or productive, and it will be reflected in your score.
Also, weā€™ve addressed Exclude apps from screen time calculation - Google Maps, Spotify, audiobooks. (make them not count) . If you label an app as ā€œNeutralā€, it wonā€™t count in your Screen Time total (for example a music or podcast app, or google maps / waze).

Update Screen Time Display - Focus Score, Distracted/Neutral/Productive Time
#439

Hi, why opal doesnā€™t provide a list of apps installed on MY device so I would adjust ratings on them? I use many apps that are not in the list.

Thanks,
Allan

But then why I can set limit for the some app, but not set focus score to the same app?

For me adding the app is not really helpful, as I am not English user and I would not spend time writing to the forum to add some app.

#442

Please add Owaves to your app list.

#443

Can you please add ThredUp as an app to limit and weight as very distracting? I imagine many others would feel the same about TheRealReal and Poshmark.

#444

Iā€™d also like to have the option of not counting Spotify as ā€œscreen time.ā€ Listening to podcasts in the car ends up making it seem like Iā€™ve been in my phone moreā€¦

#446

Hey !
You can tap on any app and edit wether you think this app is Productive, Distracting or Neutral. Hit Save, and your score and chart will update. If you select Neutral, the app wonā€™t count in your screen time.

The ability to classify apps as distracting or productive based on the usage at different times of day. An app can be distracting at some time , while at other time it could be productive.

This could introduce better management of time. The power should be with the user whether he wants to classify the app as productive or not at that time

Hey there @Shubham_Nimesh,

Thanks for the suggestion. We havenā€™t considered changing an appā€™s productivity rating based on the time of day, but Iā€™ve added this to our thread on the feature so our engineers can consider it for future upgrades. Stay tuned!

All the best,
Sarah @ Opal
