About ZenMode:
ZenMode is the new feature released with OnePlus 7 Pro. It is focused on decreasing the screen time of users. ZenMode restricts the user from using any other application. During the Zen Mode, you can only use camera application and receive phone calls. You can also make emergency phone calls if needed. It also restricts notifications from all other applications.
When the Zen Mode is turned on, you can only see the remaining time on the lock screen and home screen. Over a period of time, you can see the gradient on the screen turning to cooler colors. Zen Mode also reminds you to take your time off if you’re using the device continuously for 2 hours. You can also customize on when you want the Zen Mode to remind you.
