Frequently asked questions about Aura
Quick answers about screen time, blocking distracting apps, earning coins, streaks, and device support.
Can I delete Aura and open TikTok?
In Easy Mode, yes. Hard Mode prevents iOS from deleting Aura while a block is running. Turning Hard Mode off requires a sustained press and hold. If you reinstall Aura and sign back in, your habits, streaks, and coins return with your account.

The method depends on the habit. With your permission, Photo Proof sends an image through Aura's verification service to Google Gemini, with OpenAI as a fallback. Aura does not keep the verification copy. After a pass, Aura attempts to save a Wall of Wins copy on your device and, when you are signed in, sync it to private account storage. Aura can also count supported reps on your device, run a focus timer, or read supported Apple Health activity.

Aura only blocks the apps and websites you selected. Calls, messages, maps, emergency features, and anything left off your block list continue to work normally.

Your daily coins reset at midnight, so screen time earned today does not roll into tomorrow. The clean reset keeps each day's trade simple: do the habits, earn the time, and use it that day.

Aura can use a streak freeze when you have one available. Complete two quests in a day to earn a freeze. If you miss a day without one, the streak count starts again, but the rest of your account stays intact.
