While it is in the development phase, our Android app is free. For more information about the features of our Android app and how to troubleshoot any issues, continue reading.

How do I add a Session on the Android version of the app?

To add a Session, click on the "+ New" button on the "Blocks" tab. You may then select to create a "Schedule" or a "Timer." Once you've made your selection, you may then edit the following information about your Session by clicking on the editing icons:

• The name of your event
• The time your Session runs or Duration of your Session
• "On these days"
• "Apps Blocked"
• "Breaks Allowed"

In the "Breaks Allowed" option on the Android version of the app, you will have three protection level options available:

• Yes, make it easy: Take short breaks or cancel.
• Yes, but make it harder: You have to wait more before each break.
• No way, I'm hardcore: Can't take breaks or leave early.

How Can I Edit Or Cancel My Session on the Android version of the app?

Do you need to modify or cancel your ongoing Session? Here's how:

• From your Opal "Blocks" tab, tap on your ongoing Session
• Wait for the waiting room to count down and tap "Continue"
• If you want to "Edit," tap the button
• If you want to "Take a Break" or "Leave Early," tap the corresponding button
