restrictions passcode

I would like to know to change the restrictions passcode on my Ipad which I allow my son to use. He has figured out my passcode (which I use for other things).


iPad, iOS 10

Assuming that you have an iPad4 with iOS10.x installed, as suggested by the tags appended to your post, you cannot directly change the restrictions Passcode. Instead you must first disable Restrictions.

Settings > General > Restrictions > Disable Restrictions


After Restrictions have been disabled, you can re-enable Restrictions, choose a new Restrictions Passcode - and then re-apply specific restrictions as required.
