Cannot access My Name settings

I have an iPhone SE running iOS 13.1.2


When I enter Settings, where my name appears at the top is greyed-out and I cannot access it to alter or up-date those settings. All the other settings are fine. Because of this I cannot configure my iCloud account.


Any suggestions?

Hello jamesfromoswestry,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities! I see you have an issue with not being able to select your Apple ID in Settings, and I'd like to help out.


There is a setting within Screen Time that can restrict changes, and will affect the Apple ID.

Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Account Changes > Click on "Allow".


More information about Screen Time can be found here: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


If a passcode is requested, and you didn't set up Screen Time, check with who set it up on your iPhone.


Cheers!
