Screen time still locking apps after a day.

Hi,

I have set Screen time on my devices and after being reached the time limit yesterday, it still locks me out today (apparently chrome is the only app that works).

I am not really sure how screen time works. I thought after a day of reaching a time limit, the next day time screen resets, but I know it is not the case.


Can anyone help me please?

Many Thanks,

Mark Shapiro
