Roblox App Not Affected by Screen Time

Regardless of what I do, I cannot get Roblox to work with screen time limitations on my child’s account. He is using an iPad (7th Gen) with the latest update (15.2). Previously his account was on an iPad Mini (1st Gen, I think). I have tried limiting Roblox App individually, I have tried limiting all Games, and I have tried limiting all Apps. Besides the apparently untouchable Apple designated Apps, Roblox is the only other App that refuses to be limited. I have attempted these adjustment through the screen time settings on my own device and I have made them directly on his iPad. Neither method seems to have an impact. Any ideas or help are appreciated.

This is an issue. Roblox is the biggest offender of robbing my child’s personality. He gets short, he’s addicted, and he can’t put it down. Therapists say apps are responsible for impulsive behavior, Roblox and YouTube shorts are the worst. How do I tell my child he can’t use his iOS device for homework or speaking to friends, or calling us if he has any trouble or needs a ride? Because Apple can’t even create a protection for our children??? Apple, this is for you to fix please. Parents need your help navigating our children’s digital lives. Draconian measures unfortunately are the only resort. No tech.
