Hello, I hope you are doing well! I was wondering if it is possible to have multiple blocking sessions occurring at once? I would like to have one always running that gives me absolutely no access to some apps 24/7 (adult sites, TikTok, and Reddit), and another session that blocks distracting apps from the morning until I get home from school. Is this possible?
I was playing with sessions while I was trying to discover the app and I wanted to have 2 sessions that run at the same time.
I created an allow list that runs from 5am to 6pm to do actual work and a block list that runs all the time for something else. And unfortunately I set that one as a deep focus session so I canât edit it or delete it. So the first one is basically not active because of the second one.
Hi there - I set up multiple âsessionsâ, some that are due to overlap, but only one is active and I can still access some of the apps I had hoped to block. Can users have more than one limit or session going at a time?
Iâd love to be able to have more than one session at a time. i.e. Thereâs some apps that I would like to have âalways onâ, and then be able to have other sessions with more apps other times throughout the day.
Being able to have multiple, overlapping sessions is key to the use case of opal. I block certain apps at certain times but then want to go into a deep work session and shut down additional apps (overlapping time) for focus.
Cold Turkey is the gold standard for mac and what opal should replicate for ios.
I would like to be able to have one session which blocks work emails and messages outside of work hours, as well as a continuously running social media blocking session, which I did using the coworker live session. But it currently seems to end the social media one automatically when toggling on the work blocking session.
Everytime i block an app on a single session it updates the rest of the sessions, for example i wanna block social and mail in the morning and in the afternoon session only social, it doesnât let me do that
@kenneth is overlapping sessions being developed?
Iâve read the entire thread here and I can see youâve directed people towards using App Limits at the same time as a session, but itâs not the same as having overlapping sessions.
For ex Iâd like to have most distracting apps blocked throughout the day but not WhatsApp.
But for 2 hours each morning Iâd like to also block WhatsApp, to do some deep work.
