One or more popular apps (Messenger, Facebook, etc.) are blocked by Jomo but I have never selected them!
You haven’t selected apps like Messenger, Facebook, or Spotify in Jomo, yet they’re still being blocked. That’s because a URL associated with one of those apps was blocked.
(Blocklist) Check what’s being blocked
- Open Jomo > Rules.
- Open your active rules.
- Make sure only apps are selected.
Avoid selecting links like: facebook.com
, mfacebook.com
, messenger.com
. This can cause issues with Messenger or WhatsApp.
(Whitelist) Exclude links from being blocked
- Open Jomo > Rules.
- Open your active rules.
- Add the links related to the app that was mistakenly blocked (for example, for Messenger:
mfacebook.com
,messenger.com
, …)
I still want to block these sites
If you want to block sites like facebook.com
without interfering with other Meta apps (Messenger, etc.), follow these steps:
- Open Jomo > Rules.
- Tap the rule card of your choice.
- On the rule detail screen, tap the Block section.
- In that screen, tap Additional Options & Websites at the bottom.
- Type the website URL manually, then tap Add.
Using this method for blocking websites won’t cause any issues with related apps.
