Here is a check list with posible causes:

  • You are drunk and should not call your mom until you are sober. If that is the case Drunkblocker is doing its job

  • Stop DrunkBlocker by passing the sober test.

Why dosen't Drunkblocker block text messages!

Many DrunkBlocker users ask this question and the answer is that currently there are some limitations in the Android framework that does not allow me to access certain parts of the system that is needed to block outgoing text messages.
