I've created a test project in which I can successfully receive the FamilyControl authorization for the child's device.

In child device, no issue:

My project can show family Activity Picker successfully. Using "selection.applicationTokens", I can get tokens that I choice.

In Parent device, problem:

My project can show family Activity Picker successfully as well, I can see the application list. But when I try to get a token using"selection.applicationTokens", it's empty.

The same problem was also found on Beta8.

Can someone please help me?

I can't get Activity Picker to show applications on parent device, only empty categories. Same code is working fine on child 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.
