How to add a single website in Always allow in Screen Time

I need to add several websites I'd like to be always available during Downtime.

Seems it is possible to set time limits but don't know how to enable specific website.


P.s. Screen Time is super buggy and hacky :(((

Hey there Kanu666,


I understand what you're trying to accomplish. A web content exception feature for Downtime is not available currently. However, using the Feedback link, you can select the iPad, and use the "Feature Request" option under "Feedback Type" to submit your feedback.


Cheers!

Hello Kanu666!


Based on your post it appears you would like to add specific websites as exceptions using Screen Time on your iPad. Is that correct? Screen Time is a great feature to have access to, and I’ll be happy to advise.


There wouldn’t be a way to add an exception for specific websites using Downtime, but you can add websites using Content & Privacy Restrictions and App Limits. 


This can be done in Settings > Screen Time > Apple Limits > Add Limit

You can also add web content in Settings > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Content Restrictions > Web Content. 


Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


I would also recommend submitting feedback about the ability to add websites as an exception while using Downtime. Right now this can only be done for specific applications.

I hope these resources help.


Regards.

As far as I understand none of the suggestions will allow to use specific website during Downtime :(

E.g. I I add AppLimit it will allow me to set the max time allowed. But what I need is to limit usage of all websites except one-two specific.

And content restriction doesn't work here as it needs to be dependent on the time of the day:

My son uses his iPad at school and at home. At school everything should be unblocked as I have no idea which sites they are gonna use in class (and they have their own restriction rules set up). At home I want to allow only selected websites and block everything else.


For the feedback which category should I choose? There is no anything related to ScreenTime.
