Troubleshooting App Picker Issues

Known Issue with Apple's Screen Time API

Although this feature usually works as intended, the Achieve! application may freeze or crash when you:

  • Select the "Other" category
  • Browse multiple open categories for specific apps/websites to block

Unfortunately, this is a known issue with Apple's Screen Time API that needs to be addressed by Apple's development team. We have escalated this issue to Apple on numerous occasions and are awaiting a resolution.

What can I do if the app picker screen is crashing, and I Need to make a Block List or White List?

  1. Close any categories that you've left open while searching
  2. Try typing a single letter in the "Search" bar
  3. Type the name of the app/website in another app and paste it into the "Search" bar
  4. Force close Achieve!, check for OS and app updates, and try again
  5. As a last resort, delete and reinstall Achieve! (Note: Create an account first)
