v5.1.0
Block schedules and a session that survives
Block apps on a weekly schedule, keep your session when Kaizen is fully closed, take a quick look at a blocked app, and fit more into your tasks.
New
- Block schedules: block the apps you pick at the same times every week, even with Kaizen closed (Android, iOS).
- Tap the app blocking chip on the timer, then Add schedule: pick the days, all day or a time window, and the apps it blocks.
- Each schedule has its own apps and its own Open anyway settings.
- Plans changed? End today's block, skip the next one, or skip until a date.
- Locked works for schedules too: once a Locked block starts, it can't be ended, changed or switched off, apart from your weekly emergency end.
- A notification shows while a schedule is on, with an End block button for blocks that aren't Locked (Android).
- Quick look: a short look at a blocked app, without the wait. It costs half a use (Android, iOS).
- Your session survives: fully closing Kaizen during a session no longer ends it. It's still there the next time you open Kaizen, within a day.
Improvements
- Open anyway can now open an app for up to 60 minutes, up from 15 (Android, iOS).
- Task titles can now be twice as long (100 characters), and tasks hold twice as many subtasks (50).
- When you add a task to your Inbox, a counter shows up as the title nears the limit.
- Picking a habit's days now fits all seven on one row.
- Long room names are no longer cut off inside a room.
- Accessibility improvements throughout the app.
Fixes
- With the keyboard open, buttons like Log in now work on the first tap (Android, iOS).
- With Full Screen on, the top of your Profile no longer sits too low during a session (Android, iOS).
- Timer and Block now notifications show Kaizen's icon instead of a white circle (Android).
- After you turn your phone, the frosted buttons on the Focus screen now blur what's behind them correctly (Android).
- Small avatars no longer show stray lines from a gesture.
- Going full screen with a themed timer no longer flashes white (Web, Windows).
- Hovering a button inside a card no longer highlights the cards around it (Web, Windows).
Plus lots of little things. Small fixes and touches all over the app, from the block screen to theme cards.
