You should pay attention to two commonly overlooked aspects...


  1. Configuring device restrictions for your child's device.
  2. Setting up a screen time passcode on your own device for your child.



Set Screen Time Restrictions for your Child in your Family using Parental Control.


Please see the pic below which is self-explanatory.

I have a similar issue whereby I’ve set up specific websites and apps to block through screen time yet the child’s browser history (which can’t be deleted thankfully) shows that she is using a restricted website. When I click on the site icon, e.g., instagram, it says the site is blocked - so how is she getting to use the app/site? And how do I prevent it?
