Common questions
How do I start a focus session?
On the Home tab, tap Start focus session. Choose the apps to block, pick a time, and tap Start. The apps are blocked right away and unlock on their own when the timer ends.
Can I end a session early?
No, and that's on purpose. Knowing you can't back out is what makes it work. If you're not sure, start with a shorter time.
How do schedules work?
Pick the apps, a time window (for example, 7 to 9 AM) and the days, then choose how many weeks it repeats. Still Water blocks the apps automatically during that window. Once you commit, a schedule can't be edited, paused or deleted until its weeks are up. After that, you can renew it or delete it.
My apps didn't unlock the moment the timer ended
iOS can take up to a minute to lift the block. If an app is still locked after that, open Still Water once and it will catch up.
I don't see the countdown on my Lock Screen
Open Settings → Still Water and turn on Live Activities.
I'm not getting session reminders
Open Settings → Still Water → Notifications and turn on Allow Notifications.
Still Water says it needs Screen Time access
Still Water needs permission from iOS to block apps. Make sure Screen Time is turned on in Settings, then open Still Water and allow access when iOS asks.
How do I delete my data?
Delete the app. Still Water keeps everything on your iPhone, so deleting it removes all of it. See our privacy policy for details.
