Screentime and pinterest

So, i have never had the pinterest app installed in my ipad, neither it is added to my apple id. But when opening screen time it shows 24h usage for the past 4 days. I think this is a bug but i cant find a place to rapport it.

Im on ios 14.2 (the newest update that isnt a beta at this moment)

Here is a picture of the screentime in settings.

Hey Eric!


The ipad is the only device using my apple id. I do not have a pinterest account neither do i use it on my ipad. So it should not be showing up there. I have checked and the site is not open in any of my browsers. Adding a screentime limit of 1 minute reduced the time to 1 minute per day.

Im afraid that it is a bug on IOS but im not sure where to report it.


Thanks for the reply and also have a wonderful day!

I am having the same issue with my sons phone. We are on family share, and my wife has Pinterest, but he has his own Apple ID. He only has access to a few sites via Safari, and Pinterest is not one of them, but it is showing he is using the app 24 hours a day. Even when screen time is fully off, Pinterest keeps on recording it's time. Strange this is now two people with the same issue. Any update, or is anyone else seeing this?

Hi! I found this thread because I can’t seem to block Pinterest on my daughters phone during school. I’m familiar with screen time and have used it frequently. I just noticed that Pinterest was specifically still active right now while she’s in school. I quadruple checked my settings to confirm nothing was allowed. I power cycled the device. I uninstalled the app then reinstalled it. Same issue every time. Pinterest can’t be blocked...

Hello streepje8,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities about Pinterest in your Screen Time settings.


Are you using Pinterest on any other devices that are using the same Apple ID? If so, the Screen Time total is form all your devices: Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Also, if you are accessing the website using Safari, it may be logging that time.


Do you have other devices signed in with the same Apple ID that show the same Pinterest time usage?


Thanks and have a wonderful day.
