How do I use the Quick Block widget?

Start a Quick Block or see the time left from your Home Screen or Lock Screen.

The Quick Block widget shows your Quick Block at a glance and starts a new one with a tap. It comes in small and medium sizes for your Home Screen, and a round one for your Lock Screen.

Add the widget

  1. Touch and hold an empty spot on your Home Screen until the apps jiggle.

  2. Tap Edit, then Add Widget.

  3. Search for Slow Time Club and choose Quick Block.

  4. Swipe to the size you want, then tap Add Widget.

For the Lock Screen, touch and hold the Lock Screen, tap Customize, then tap the widget area and choose Slow Time Club.

If you can't find it, update Slow Time Club from the App Store.

What it shows

  • No block running: the length of your last Quick Block and whether it was Soft or Hard. Tap play to start another with the same apps and settings. If you've never started one, play opens Slow Time Club so you can set one up.

  • Block running: a countdown of the time left. Tap pause to take a break. A break needs at least 15 minutes left.

  • On a break: how long your break has left. Tap play to end the break early.

Good to know

  • Any tap on the widget, including the Lock Screen one, opens Slow Time Club, and the block starts or pauses there.

  • There's no Live Activity or Dynamic Island timer.
