Can't change kids' Screen Time password I need to change the Screen Time password on my kids' iPhones but can't. I manage their Screen Time from my iPhone and changed the password using my iPhone but it doesn't change the password on their phones so they can continue using the old password that they found out. There is no option to change the password if I open Screen Time on their phones. I saw another post about this that had no answers. Can someone please help?

Screen time password change Have Family Sharing and my son knows the screen time password, so he can override any screen time restrictions. How do I change it to a new password? There is no field on his iPad to do this and changing it via my iPad in Screen time does not change it for him. Incredibly frustrating. Thanks

That’s true. Is there anyone from Apple who can solve this problem?
