Screen time limits


I want to add the Amazon Alexa app to “Always Allowed” on screen time. However, the app doesn’t show up on screen time at all. When I go to the always allowed section, the app isn’t there. And, if I go to App Limits > Add Limits, it’s not there either, under any of the categories. Can someone explain why the app just isn’t there at all? I’m sure I have the app installed; it’s being blocked during Downtime. But I can’t change find it in Screen Time at all. Has anyone had this problem and know how to fix it?

iPhone X, 14

It is a part of Amazon.

What ever time limits you set on Amazon remains valid for Alexa too.

Similar is true for Always Allowed section


Try setting App Limit for Other Category (Amazon is part of that), you will notice that Amazon Alexa is also triggered.
