Problem with IMessage stickers

Some of my sticker packs don’t work and I have no idea why. A lot of apps come with stickers and I also installed a sticker pack and some work and some don‘t. What I mean is, when I want to write a message and tap on the sticker pack, nothing happens. Others work as expected. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, turning them off and on, nothing helps.

The sticker pack I‘m referring to, used to work until just recently, but today I tried and it didn‘t. It still does work on my IPhone though, so that‘s a work around, but I‘d like to get it to work again on my IPad as well.

Any ideas, what might be wrong? Thanks.

iPad Pro, 14

Ah.... Never mind, I figured it out myself. This is somewhat weird, the problem is that I set limits to my screen time for games and social media and whenever the screen time is up, I can‘t use the stickers of those apps anymore. Once I turn screen time limits off, all works fine.

However it still puzzles me, why this also happens with a sticker pack that is not associated with any social media or gaming app.
