I was wondering if in the next update could there be a shortcut added that activates blockada instead of a widget for me this is better as i have an automation app that can launch shortcuts automatically.
Hi,
Did you try the quick settings tile already? Open your notifications tray and add it there 
Ye i have added that but a home screen shortcut like the widget eould be better for me.
There’s one already. It’s a 1x1 Blokada widget
Ye i have seen that as well but even though widgets and shortcuts do the same thing they work differently
Then I guess I don’t understand your question correctly xD
Could you try to explain the difference to me?
I had to search this up myself as i dont understand myself but from what i can tell a widget is a program that updates such as a weather widget displaying the weather changes when the app updates whereas a shortcut is just like an app icon however instead of launching the app it will just activate blokada like the widget
You can use tasker already
Personally i use automate or macdroid automation apps as they are free. They can launch the entire app or launch a shortcut but not a widget unfortunately can tasker do that other than using toutch comands
There’s Easer as well.
It’s available over at f-droid.org
Blokada is optimized to be launched by Tasker applications
Ye just found out thought that option was for the tasker app only. That is an amazing feature and lobe to see that blokada has included that. Even though most people wont use this it should be mentioned to users.
There’s already a tasker integration
It is included since quite a while now and isn’t considered news anymore
Here’s a guide regrading that: Automating Blokada's behaviour with Tasker
Easer, Automate and macDroid should be able to handle that as well
