Screen Time and In-App purchases

Hi All.'


I have an iPhone where installing of apps is disabled.

However, I still have in-App purchases enabled.


So when the phone is blocked, i cannot access the app store to browse and install apps however I would still think that I would be able to make purchases for the apps already installed on my device.


This however is not the case.


Is there any workaround for this?

iPhone XR, iOS 14

If your family organiser has disabled installation of apps through Screen Time, then you should contact them, please. There is no workaround.
