Setup an automation to count app opens
Would you like to add a “Limit openings” condition? For this to work, you need to add an automation in the Shortcuts app to count the number of openings. Don't worry, it's easy and only takes 1 minute to set up!
Open Shortcuts application
Press Automation then + or New automation.
In the list, select App.
On the App-line, press ${color}[#0061ff]( Choose, then select ALL applications for which you wish to record openings.)
Below, select “Is open”, then check the “Run immediately option.
Click on Next.
Press New blank automation
Press the search bar, then search for Count App Open, then press the item
In the blue box, press and enter the name of your rule in Jomo.
⚠️ Make sure the name is IDENTICAL, to the nearest period, space and capital letter. If it isn't, the automation won't be able to link the two and function correctly.
Press Finish at top right
⠀
Have you followed everything correctly? Please check the following points:
In the content blocked by this rule, make sure that the apps selected are the same on Jomo and on Shortcuts.
If in doubt, re-select the apps to be blocked after reaching your limit of openings.
🛠️ Is the limit still not working? You can delete it and start again from step 1. If the problem persists, please contact us via the application (Profile > Messages > Chat with us).
