App downtime Improvement
Spencer Timothy
There seems to be a minor issue with blocking apps on a schedule to where the app/website is blocked significantly earlier than the time allotted allows. For example, I have Youtube blocked starting at 7:30 daily, but it is inaccessible as early as 7:00.
Additionally, I would like the feature of being able to view the entire schedule without editing it while my profile is unlocked.
Thanks
Ben
Feedback noted on being able to view the schedule while profile is locked - we'll add this to our development board
As for apps/websites being blocked earlier, this is not an issue we typically see (it's usually the opposite due to dns caching). Can you try going to https://dnsleaktest.com/ and running a standard test, then see what it says under "country" column? It could be that your connection is going through a slightly different time zone, which would mess with the scheduling accuracy.
The other issue I've run into myself is overlapping rules. Sometimes I have a second rule that sets a schedule with overlapping selections. You could test this by adding a unique domain to your block rule and see if that domain is blocked at the correct time. If it is, then overlapping rules might be the issue. If not, my best guess is the time zone issue mentioned above.
