Hey Team! I think you should have breaks longer than 15 minutes in the app! You should be able to preset the duration for certain types of breaks (like lunch or a workout), and then when you press take a break, there could be a lunch option and it will break for your preset amount of time. Thanks!

Yes this is almost a dealbreaker for me. If we get an hour break for work I need to be able to break for that instead of just disabling the schedule while I’m in that break

Longer breaks should be allowed in timeout mode, currently the limit is 15 minutes. There should also be an option to select the number of breaks that can be taken before the start of a session.
I would like to be able to pause app blocks for lunch time! Would that be something to look for?
Hey @here,
Thanks for the suggestion! We’ve escalated this request to our engineers to consider as we continue to upgrade the app. Stay tuned on that front! Otherwise, we’d recommend tailoring your sessions so that you have breaks throughout the day. You can use a combination of our Sessions, app limits, and app locks to achieve a similar result:
All the best,
Sarah @ Opal
I’d love to be able to further personalize a session time. Right now, there’s only a start and end time, but I’d love to add a “lunch break” or other designated breaks into a session.
Ideally, I could set me session as:
SessionStart: 9am
Pause Start: 12pm
Pause End: 1pm
Session End: 5pm

There should be a feature where you can specify the length of your lunch break at work and once per day you can take a longer break. 15 minute breaks aren’t long enough to cover a lunch break and I can’t always take a break at exactly the same time so splitting the work day into two sessions doesn’t work either

Hey @Amy ,
Thanks for the feature request! I’ve passed this suggestion along to our engineers to consider as we continue to upgrade the app and merged your request into the existing threads on the subject. Stay tuned!
