First off, we know this can be frustrating. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
If you need to unblock during an emergency and you are in "Monk Mode", or having some kind of issue, please do the following:
1) Use "Emergency Unblock" mode
Open Roots, go to "Help" (top of the screen)
Scroll all the way down to "Emergency Unblock"
Follow the instructions
2) Use a "Pause"
If you are on a free trial or premium subscription
Go to "Roots > Blocking > Pause" (on top of the screen)
This will unblock all apps
3) Remove "Screen Time" permissions
Remove screen time permissions from Roots
Go to "iOS Settings > Screen Time > Apps With Screen Time Access"
Then remove access from Roots
Note: Reconnecting "Screen Time" access may lead to the loss of historical screen time data within the app
