Screen time password

I would limit myself on my iPad so that I would not be on it for to long but I stoped using it for a little bit and forgot my screen time password I went to go enter my Apple ID so I could reset it. After I did that and entered the correct Apple ID it did nothing and I’ve changed my password 2 times for this and It still didn’t work, can someone help me?

iPad, iPadOS 15

These are the minimum requirements to reset the ScreenTime passcode:

  • The device must run iOS/iPadOS 13.4 or later;

AND

  • You must know the Apple ID & Password that were used to set up that ScreenTime Passcode.

If you meet both above requirements, these are the instructions:--> If you forgot your Screen Time passcode – Apple Support


Shouldn't be this case, you need to erase that device following these instructions (even if related to the passcode to lock/unlock device's screen):--> If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled - Apple Support

The bad news is that you cannot restore data from a backup, since the ScreenTime passcode would come back in.
