Does Accountable2You Monitor Social Media?

Accountable2You can only record some details from social media. Social media apps and sites use an "endless scroll." This makes it hard for any accountability app to capture everything.

On most of our supported platforms, Accountable2You records some activity from social media pages and apps. However, it can't record all activity on social media platforms.

iPhone and iPad Limits

On iPhones and iPads, Accountable2You can't record any details inside social media apps. This is because of Apple's privacy limits. We may still record some social media sites visited in Safari or Chrome.

Recommendations

On iPhone or iPad: Use Screen Time to limit or block social media apps.

On other devices: Use Custom Trigger Words to mark social media apps as "Questionable" or "Highly Questionable." If the app's usage is recorded, your partners will then get an alert when those apps are opened. Enter each app name exactly as it appears in your reports.

Only add Custom Trigger Words for apps you plan to avoid using. This helps prevent false alerts. Talk with your accountability partners and make a plan together.
