Hi. Thanks doe the response.

it is on my phone and I already have someone who has access to the passcode for screentime etc.

i am trying to prevent myself from deleting the VPN. If I can do this with a passcode somehow that would be helpful.

Hi nugg33,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you have questions about hiding or disabling the VPN toggle in Settings. We'd like to help.

Are you hoping to hide/disable this one your own iPhone or a family members? While you can't hide it from Settings, you are able to set restrictions so that it cannot be turned on or off. Check out how to Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch to get you started on that.

Hope that helps!

Take care.

nugg33,

Thanks for the additional information.

Since this is your own device, you can set up and Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to change the settings. This can help you from accidentally accessing this Settings or deleting the app from your Home Screen.

Have a great day!

Delete the VPN. Re-install if and as required.
