Google store and youtube in app

Hello,
I have been using this app for a while and it has been an amazing help in my struggles. However, just recently I realized that the app store and youtube can be accessed through this app without going through the actual apps. I was wondering if there is some way that I can shut off accessing these two apps as they lead to many temptations for me. Thanks!

Hello there @Nayo
Welcome to the Rewire Community!

I do agree that there are quite a few triggers in YT and the Playstore.

What I’ve done is I’ve disabled both YouTube and the App Store on my phone (long press the app > select the (i) > disable), and then blocked them further using digital wellbeing and blocksite. YouTube links will still open on Rewire, but they’ll only play the one linked video in the app itself. Google links won’t open if you’ve disabled google this way, which I’ve done as well.
