What does the Downtime, Contact Editing feature control

Hi


Trying to understand the implications of turning off Contact Editing for my child's phone.


Is the editing blocked 24-7 or only during downtime?


Moreover,


Could my child potentially add phone numbers into permitted contacts to bypass downtime if Contact Editing is allowed?

iPhone X, iOS 13

When you turn OFF contact editing then your iPhone will require your Screen Time password when adding a new contact or editing an existing contact.

To answer your followup question, Turn ON contact editing on your child's iPhone and test your theory.
