- Blocking that stays understandableEleven ready categories — Social, AI Chat, Adult, Gaming, and more — each with a Strict level, plus the message people see when something is stopped.
- HomeProtection on or off, what's currently blocked, active schedule or focus session, and quick access to everything else.
- ModesTimed focus sessions and repeating weekly schedules — for study, sleep, or deep work — aligned with whichever profile is active.
