Feature request: ability to set a delay before a lock is activated #22

Closed mstahl302 closed 6 months ago

I often want to take a break and surf onmy phone, but I end up getting lost in distraction and wasting a lot of time.

How about a feature that allows me to set a lock to start after a delay? Then I can pre-commit to locking my phone after 5 minutes, then surf 5 minutes, knowing that I can't go over (unless I pay, of course.)

This is already possible for one time locks. 👍

The setting is called: "Countdown before start" or something like that. Should be the last option for one time locks.

Thanks. Took me a sec to see how to use it. (You have to tap in an odd place to set the countdown timer.)

It would be nice if the "rolled up" version of the one-time lock were to show that it was after a delay. As it is, it only shows the TIME of the lock. You can't know if there is a delay or not, unless you expand that entry.
