A new Opal. Opal has always worked when you set the rules. 4.0 adds something new: Opal can now read your day on its own: it learns when you sleep, when you focus, when you scroll. It steps in when it helps and stays out of the way the rest of the time. Heads up, two things have moved: • Blocks are now called Rules. Same feature, new name. You'll find everything in the My Apps tab,. • Breaks are now called Unblock. You can unblock at any time from the My Apps tab. What's new: • Timer. One tap to focus for a set block of time, when you need to study or get in the zone. • Opal Score. A daily reading on Focus, Sleep, and Rest. • Sounds. A library of focus mixes and ambient tracks. • New MileStones. Belts for attention, earned through real focus. New ones available. • Autofocus. Intelligent nudges that keep you on track when you're distracted. You asked, we built: • Overlapping rules, so you can stack them. • Always Allowed, so Opal never blocks your essentials like health, maps, or banking. • Never Allowed, so you can set your own permanent restrictions. • Single-app unblock, so you can open one app without breaking the rule. • Digital Detox, longer timers for a few days at a time. Now in 9 languages, including Simplified Chinese. As always, share feedback through Settings, then Support. We read all of it. Let us know if any of your favourite features are missing, we removed some things but don't worry - they'll be back soon! If you're on X, feel free to like, retweet, or comment on our launch announcement: https://x.com/opalapp The mission is the same. Align computers with human wellbeing.  4.0 is a big step in that direction and there will be a lot more to come!
