We just launched a distraction blocker for Rize. By default, the blocker will show when you're using an app or website categorized as a Distractions category while in a Focus Session.
The distraction blocker has a few options:
- Thanks for the reminder! - This will dismiss the blocker and focus on the Rize app.
- Disable for this session - This will disable the blocker for the remainder of this session (Focus/Meeting/Break). If you're not in a session, it will disable the blocker until your next session starts.
- End current session - This option will end the current session.
- Turn off notification - This option will take you to the settings page in the dashboard to edit your Distractions categories.
You can view and edit your Distractions categories in Settings > General > Distractions.
You can also set up the Distraction Blocker to show for specific apps and websites in Meetings, Breaks, or whenever you're using that app or website.
To do so, head to Settings > Tracking Rules.
Find the rule you'd like to edit and click the pencil icon.
Here's you will see all the options for the distraction blocker including:/
- Always block
- Block during Focus Sessions
- Block during Meetings
- Block during Breaks
You can enable and disable the Block during Focus Sessions to prevent an app categorized as a Distractions category from ever showing during a Focus Session.
