   Hello, Redirecting visitors to a 404 or custom page is actually how blocking works, when a visitor from a blocked country tries to access your site, they're redirected instead of being shown the actual content, so they're not gaining real access, it's not a separate feature from blocking itself. As for the countries you've mentioned, those are among the countries that require significant backend resources on our end to identify and block, so they're reserved for the paid plan. We also reached out to you directly via email to clarify this, but haven't received a reply yet. We'd really like the chance to walk you through how this works in more detail. Just reach out to our support team anytime. :-) Thanks! Effective Apps Team

   Hello, Thank you for sharing your feedback. Every review helps us improve Blocky for the sake of our users. Thanks for giving Blocky a try! Once you've added the countries to your block list, they should take effect right away, so you shouldn't need to wait long to see results. If you keep seeing traffic from those countries after setting it up, in most cases that's related to visitors using VPNs or proxies to mask their real location, rather than an issue with the blocking itself. We'd love to hear how it goes, and if anything looks off after a few days, just reach out to our support team anytime and we'll take a look. :-) Thanks again! Effective Apps Team

   Hello, Thank you for the honest feedback, it genuinely helps us improve Blocky for our users. Really glad to hear you had a good experience with our support team! Ghost spam is a bit different from regular traffic, at it doesn't actually visit your site. Since Blocky blocks based on actual visits by IP and country, it can't catch traffic that never technically arrives, which is why you're still seeing it despite blocking being set up correctly. We're always looking at ways to help with cases like this, so if you'd like to share more detail about what you're seeing, we're happy to take a closer look. We'd love to have you back on the full app once this is sorted. :-) Thanks again! Effective Apps Team

   Hello, Thanks so much for your review, feedback like this helps us keep improving Blocky for our users. Glad to hear you like the app overall! To clarify, the free plan does include real functionality, country blocking for up to 3 countries at no cost. Some specific countries and features do require our paid plan, since those require significant additional backend resources on our end to support. If you'd like, we're happy to walk you through exactly what's included in the free plan versus the paid plan. Just reach out to our support team anytime, we'd genuinely like the chance to make this clearer for you. :-) Thanks again! Effective Apps Team
