I have OISD on and I understand how that’s working in the activity setting, what’s confusing me is I’ve manually blocked a site [ google.com ] it’s in my block list and yet in my activity list it has a red shield for it, number of times blocked and yet it says allowed?? why is that? is it really blocked?
Items that are blocked using one of the blocklists have a vertical red line alongside the shield but this is not the case when you manually block anything
Hi,
yes, I just checked and adding google.com to the blocklist does indeed block it. See screenshots below. You can add such an exception regardless of which blocklists you have active. Please also note that the activity list may take some time to load.
All with a red shield are in my blocklist [ but say allowed ] Those with a red shield and a red vertical line to the left of the shield are in the selectable blocklist in the app
The “allowed” with red shield bug has already been tracked, and a fix will be available in the next update.
Please note that depending on how you add a given web address to the blocked ones, it will work differently. That is, adding “google.com”, “www.google.com”, “*.google.com”, “*google.com” will have different effects.
