What’s wrong with screen time? I use screen time to manage my kids usage of their iPhone/iPad and this feature does not work as expected. It allow them to continue watch beyond the limits. They can ignore the limits…
are you also having the same issue with iOS 16.4.5 and any other version before that?

There are 2 other ways Screen Time limits can be ignored.
Another thing kids are doing is getting your Screen Time Passcode by setting the screen to start recording, then having you put in your PassCode. If you see a flashing red icon in the upper left, then the screen is being recorded. Of course this can be disable in Screen Time too by going to Content & Privacy Restrictions > Content Restrictions and shut off "Screen Recording".
There is also the case of kids resetting their devices to Factory Settings. Currently the best solution to this is to change their Apple ID password and not give it to them. With Find My turned on they would have to enter the password when reset and you would know what they did.
This will not solve all Screen Time problems and there is still more work that needs done.
Literally saying that I a screen time when I did not do it😡
this was my problem, thanks for solving
on my phone I want to put ignore screen time limit so I can talk and call my mom because my phone unlocked really late and she calls me and I can’t see it because my phone is locked.
Stop the screen time limit.
That’s ridiculous though, it shouldn’t be such a pain in the ***!
Same problem here I myself get addicted because of the feature
Roblox
I’ve done that it still doesn’t work properly
To anybody looking about setting the ignoring the screen time limit this is the correct solution
does not solve it
I’ve been dealing with the same problem for a few months, and I think I might have found a solution if you haven’t already tried it; if you go to app limits and tap the app buttons in screen time, there’s a toggle that says “block at the end of the limit”. There’s a chance that might have been turned off because of the update.
