Hello! I have followed the instructions to allow the gif in messenger to be allowed during “downtime” but it still restricted.
”Messenger” is not an option under “allowed apps” under “privacy and restrictions.” (See photo)
But “messenger” IS listed as “always allowed” under screen time, and the #images gif feature is part of my app drawer.
How do I enable gifs on the app drawer to be always active?
iPhone 13 Pro
There doesn’t seem to be a way to fix this - from what I can tell, apple claims it’s “by design.”
However, with iOS 16 they’ve now moved the voice memo button to the app drawer, so it’s rendered useless during downtime. Hoping they will remedy this quickly!
