Screentime Down time

When I set a down time on my sons phone, after I leave that screen, it shows for a moment and then goes back to having no down time. It won’t stick. And I need to make this limit but it’s not allowing me.

iPhone SE, 11

Screen time limits not working Can someone provide me with some help for the screen time limits. They don’t seem to be working. I’ve tried turning screen time on and off, turning the phone on and off, ensuring the apps aren’t set to always allow, and ensuring that each app has a specific time limit. Even after the limit, they’re still accessible.

Downtime and other screen time features keep disabling themselves The last two or so versions of iOS have had a myriad of problems retaining my settings on my kids phones. I will set them, go out of screen time, go back in and they are off again. It is very broken. We have tried everything to get it working again. Ideas?

Try turning Screen Time restrictions off.

Try a restart.

Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Try a forced restart.

Reset Device
