Block Categories

Decide what gets blocked

Choose groups of websites and apps to block. Clarity keeps distractions out so your protection windows can stay focused.

Check that the desktop app is ready on the computer you are using.
Open Readiness and verify each device is ready.

A protection window did not start

Review the scheduled start time and time zone.
Make sure the protection window is assigned to the device you expected.
Return to Protection Windows and check whether another active protection window is already running.

I need to stop a session
