A good argument against gamifying productivity apps, and a great quote: "we should be trying to actively fortify our attention on our tasks and goals by recognizing the value in them, not just trying to block attention from the devices."

A fix has been applied to properly detect the Opera GX extension. Please run the latest 4.7 installer to apply the fix: getcoldturkey.com/news/

There are ongoing issues with Opera GX support. A recent update to Opera GX causes Blocker to not find the extension. A fix has been identified and a quick patch to 4.7 will be made soon. Another post will be made with instructions to fix the issue once the patch is available.

There is a known issue with allowances not working in the latest Edge and Chrome extension update. A fix has already been submitted. No action is required as your browser will automatically update it.

The extension update approval process is taking longer than anticipated. This is delaying the 4.6 release. If you are okay with some block page features not working correctly, you can still try out the new version. Please see here for more details: www.reddit.com/r/coldturkey...

The 4.6 extension update has been submitted for review and will be rolled out shortly! This needs to happen first before releasing the main app update so that you can use the new breaks and lock types.

Coming soon in 4.6, a nifty status window that you can drag around the screen!
