Away time isn't updating
- Open Settings → Tracking in ScreenAway and check that Family Controls shows "Monitoring". If it says "Not authorized", tap through to grant Screen Time access.
- In Choose apps to track, tap Select All for all-day coverage. Tracking only observes the apps and categories you select.
- Away time appears as gaps of 30+ minutes between phone usage, at minute precision — short breaks under 30 minutes don't count, and new usage can take a few minutes to register.
The widget looks empty or stale
- Open the app once — widgets refresh whenever ScreenAway comes to the foreground.
- For the transparent widget: upload a fresh Home Screen screenshot in Settings → Transparent widget, pick the slot your widget sits in, then use Fine-tune position.
Insights say "using built-in insights"
AI insights use Apple Intelligence on your device. If it's off, still downloading, or your iPhone doesn't support it, ScreenAway automatically uses its built-in insight text instead — nothing breaks. Enable Apple Intelligence in iOS Settings to switch to AI-written insights.
A focus session won't end
Open ScreenAway and tap End focus session on the Today tab. Shields lift immediately. Force-quitting the app does not end a session — the button does.
How do I delete my data?
Delete the app. All data lives on your iPhone, so deleting ScreenAway removes everything. There is no account and no server copy — see the privacy policy.
