Troubleshooting Common Issues

Quick fixes for the most common Android installation barriers.

Restricted Settings (Android 13+)

On newer Android versions, accessibility settings are "Restricted" for downloaded apps.

Fix:Go to phone Settings → Apps → System Configuration. Tap the 3 dots in the top right → "Allow Restricted Settings".

App Disappears or Stops Working

The device's built-in battery optimization is putting the monitoring service to sleep to save power.

Fix:Return to battery settings and ensure the app is set to "Unrestricted" or "Don't Optimize".

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to root the device?
No, rooting is not required. Our advanced rootless monitoring leverages Android's native accessibility and wireless debugging APIs to capture data seamlessly.
Will the child know the app is installed?
During the final setup step, you have the option to enable "Stealth Mode", which hides the app icon from the launcher and masks it as a "System Configuration" utility in the settings menu.
Why do I need to disable Google Play Protect?
Play Protect often flags monitoring utilities because they require deep system permissions (like reading screens and logging keystrokes) that typical apps do not use. Disabling it ensures the app is not automatically removed by Android.
