Reply to Event threshold callbacks are inconsistent
first of all i assume you are talking about shielding apps. when i tried to trigger the threshold callbacks i noticed that the threshold i defined was reached not by one app i selected but as a sum of the usage of all the apps i selected. maybe start from there? if you defined an DeviceActivityEvent with a threshold of X and passed several applications, it means that if the total usage for all the apps combined is X than the callback will fire if you want each app to have different threshold consider creating DeviceActivityEvent for each app separately tell me if it was helpful for you

Reply to Can I manage restrictions from the parent's application?
From what i saw you can't get the neither the application identifiers nor the application tokens of the applications on the parent device' probably because security and information privacy issues. Let's remember that you also can't get authorization on parent app. I may have a possible solution for this but i haven't tried it yet to see if it works: Sending selection model from the picker via server to the child app and use it on the picker. Probably it won't work because of encryption and security issues but it worth the try. Let me know if it helped

Reply to List of Apps selected from Family Activity Picker from a parent/guardian device is empty
Hi  MohamediOS! You get an empty set of applications tokens because the parent app is not authorized and you can't get it authorized at all. I think that apple did this from security issues and you can see this even on an authorized child that the applications tokens set is not empty but it's encrypted. So i believe you can't get this list on a Non authorized app at this moment maybe apple will be nice and make an api change that we can retrieve this information on a connected users threw the family sharing or something.

Reply to missing com.apple.developer.family-controls / Missing Family Controls from provisioning profile
did it tell you this? : "Provisioning profile "" doesn't support the Family Controls capability even though you enabled this option on Xcode and on your apple developer account? i'm currently at the same situation and trying to figure out why is that.

Reply to Unable to get token from Family Activity Picker Screen Time API With Parent's device
Your PARENT app can't be authorized (at this moment of time and will never be in my opinion) so the applicationTokens set will never be exposed to you from apple security reasons. You can tell this is a security issue because even when using an authorized CHILD app this data is not empty but it is encrypted.
