Hurdle Support

An app won't lock

Check that Screen Time permission is granted (Hurdle → Settings), the hurdle is enabled, and give iOS up to a minute to apply a new shield. A restart of the app after first granting permission can help.

An app won't unlock after my task

Unlocks apply within a few seconds. If a shield lingers, close and reopen the locked app. If several hurdles cover the same app, every one of them must be cleared.

The usage chart is empty

Usage data renders on-device only and can take a few seconds to appear. It begins collecting after your first hurdle is created.

I'm locked out and it's urgent

Deleting Hurdle removes all of its locks immediately. We hope you won't — but it's your phone.

Everything else

Email support@gethurdle.app and include your iOS version and what you expected to happen.
