🚩 Breaks Just Got an Upgrade

Warning: Updating to this version will reset your current breaks count to 0.

And finally, for the joy of our eyes, the old dated design for starting a break is gone—replaced with a brand-new experience. We poured a lot of energy into this redesign. We asked ourselves countless questions about the new look, and after months of work: here it is! And we can’t wait to hear what you think.

👀 New Exercises

Yes, a new design is great, but what really matters are the new exercises. We know some of you have been around for a while, and just like us, you may have grown a little tired of the old ones… But no worries—the team’s got you covered.

Mirror : Force yourself to look straight into your own eyes before unlocking an app. I swear, after 30 seconds the awkwardness really sets in. Honestly, you might start wondering if Instagram is even worth it.

Recopy: You can now recopy personalized messages instead of a random code. We’ve written some default ones (and we put our heart into them). But if you don’t like them, no worries—you can write your own.

📱Breaks in the Dynamic Island

Nope, you’re not dreaming. We finally did it (two years after launch): your break timer now shows up in the Dynamic Island (that little black bar at the top) —stop, I might cry tears of joy. From now on, you can see how much time you’ve got left with just a quick glance. And 20 seconds before the end, you’ll get a gentle reminder!

🇵🇱 Jomo jest teraz dostępne po polsku

This version adds the Polish translation to Jomo. Huge thanks to Michał for reviewing it 🙏. As always, if your language isn’t available in Jomo yet, feel free to reach out directly from the app.

🚀 What’s Next?

We’re continuing to harmonize the app’s design and simplify the overall experience. We’re also working hard to fix Screen Time issues, reporting them to Apple (and crossing our fingers they’ll be addressed).

Thanks for your trust and support.

💭 Get Your Journal Ready!

Journaling is one of our oldest features, but its design hadn’t been updated in… way too long. We gave it a fresh look (finally!) and also improved how it works. The old “Feeling” rating is now replaced with “Usefulness” — a less naïve view of screen time that gives you deeper insights into those abstract numbers.

✨ New: You can now exclude an app from your report just for the day (perfect if Screen Time data looks off).

🔒 New Actions on Rule Cards

Accidentally added a rule instead of saving it as a template? Tired of rebuilding the same session from scratch when you could just duplicate it? Now you can. Just long-press on a card to duplicate it or quickly add it to your list of templates.

🐛 Bug Fixes in This Release

• Safari: Website details are no longer displayed. Recent Screen Time bugs caused inaccurate reporting in Safari, so we removed the feature to keep things simple and accurate.

• Screen Time: You’ll now see an error message in your report if corrupted data comes through. This makes it easier to understand and fix the report if needed.

🚀 What’s Next?

Two features we haven’t touched yet (we’ll let you guess which ones 👀) are also getting a fresh update. We can’t wait for you to try them soon.

We’ve also prioritized some of your most requested (and long-awaited) features — this fall is going to be packed!

As for the Mac app, we’ll soon start working on your feedback and requests there too. It’s about time it got a little polish as well.

So stay tuned!

🌬️ A fresh breeze is blowing through Jomo!

Hope you’re having a great summer and taking some time for yourself — and away from screens. On our end, we’ve been busy! We took advantage of these sunny days to rethink the Jomo experience and give its design a refresh.

To celebrate Jomo’s upcoming 3rd birthday — yes, already, we wanted to spend some time refining its identity and design. A cool product is great — but a cool and beautiful one? Even better.

🏡 A new design for the Home screen

The interface is now cleaner and more modern. Your screen time data is split into two sections. At the top, you’ll still find your hour-by-hour breakdown. To make things even easier, we brought notifications and activations directly onto the main screen (tap on the values to filter, just like before).

We also added a new metric: Decrease so you can instantly see how you’re progressing with Jomo! In the second section, you’ll find your most used apps — just like before — but with a few small tweaks to make the experience even more pleasant.

👤 A simplified Profile

This was one of the oldest parts of the app, so we gave it a solid clean-up and simplified how data is displayed. We merged the two previous sections into one (for now 👀).

The Progress section is now easier to understand and puts your personal achievements front and center — so you can clearly see how Jomo supports your daily life. The Screen Time section has also been redesigned to highlight your efforts.

🔒 Rules Improvements

We’ve updated the detailed view. Jomo now shows you a short summary of each rule so you can quickly understand what it blocks, whether it’s active or not, and more. Helpful if you’re ever feeling lost!

We also made tweaks to Limits and Actions. Navigation could feel a bit cluttered, so we simplified the way you choose subcategories for Limits and Actions.

🌟 Introducing “Extra Time”

This new feature is available on all limits. Here’s how it works: once you hit your limit, you can unlock a bit more time — but only if you complete specific actions (like running, walking, or pushing through something productive).

This feature replaces the old Dynamic Limits.

🐛 Bug fixes in this release

• Excluded Screenshots and EyeReliefUI from screen time reports

• Fixed an issue where the blog section wouldn’t update

• Fixed NFC tag scanning on the latest iOS

• Fixed a mismatch between daily and weekly total screen time

• 
  

We also updated our help docs and added new articles. If you’re running into issues or have questions, feel free to check them out!

🚀 What’s Next?

We’re continuing to optimize Jomo to make it as enjoyable as possible. New features are on the way — including a major redesign of a much-loved Jomo feature. We’re also preparing and testing Jomo for the upcoming iOS update dropping in September.

So stay tuned!
