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.

Screen time jammed on kids device I can adjust screen time ‘content and privacy restrictions’ on my iPhone 10 ph but on kids iPhone 8 he has Access to everything and the switch for ‘content and privacy’ in screen time is faded and won’t let me turn it on or off. Please apple this is really bad as my kid is staying up all night and I can’t prevent it. On my phone all the restrictions are in place- it’s strange as my other child has iPhone 7 and there are none of these problems any one know why the screen time button would be jammed on child’s phone?

Turn Screen Time off on her device and then set it up again and make sure to select This is my Child's iPhone.
