1) Check your "Aways Allowed" List

  • Go to iOS Settings > Screen Time > Always Allowed

  • Make sure none of the apps you are trying to block are on the list


2) Try reloading

  • Tap "Help" on any screen in Roots

  • Tap the "reload" icon in the help modal

  • This should fix most issues immediately

If you are having to reload constantly please contact us!
