Due to a recent Apple bug, you need to re-sync your Screen Time settings and re-select apps to block when you update to the latest version of Roots (2.14.4).
Steps to disable and re-enable "Screen Time" access
Disable "Screen Time" access:
Open your iPhone or iPad Settings
Scroll down and tap on "ScreenTime" (as shown in the image below)
Note: If you can't access "Screen Time" settings due to "Shortcuts" set up, click here.
3. Scroll down to "Roots" (you'll see it listed under "Apps With Screen Time Access")
4. Toggle off "Screen Time Access" (as shown in the image below)
NOTE: If you see Roots listed twice, it is important that you turn off both Roots entries.
Re-enable "Screen Time" access:
Open the Roots app
The app will detect that "Screen Time" access has been removed
Follow the prompts to grant "Screen Time" permission again
You'll be taken back to "Settings" to turn "Screen Time" back on
