If you’ve recently enabled a rule in Strict Mode with Jomo, it prevents you from deleting apps on your iPhone. This is a safeguard to avoid deleting Jomo. Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t allow blocking the deletion of Jomo only—it applies this behavior to all installed apps.

How can I avoid this?

Read the alert that appears when Strict Mode is activated.

How do you remove this protection?

1. Open Jomo.  
2. Open the rule in question.  
3. Tap on Block > Strict Mode / Difficulty > Strict Mode.  
4. Tap Protections, then uncheck Lock Uninstalling Jomo & Other Apps.

How can you delete your apps?

1. Wait until the rule ends.  
2. Disable Strict Mode.
