Troubleshooting

What does the screen look like when I open something that's blocked?

A clean, minimal block screen with Welockin's padlock, a simple 'this is locked' moment rather than a nagging wall of text. Peep, the mascot, may or may not judge you gently. The screen is deliberately calm: shame is not what makes a block work.

What that means in practice

  • No countdown of how many times you tried, and no lecture.
  • The same screen appears on every device, so the experience is consistent.
