Updating Apps with Content Restrictions On?

I'm curious if there is a way to update apps on the AppStore with content restrictions enabled. I have some addictions that Apple's Screen Time restrictions assist me in controlling, and it is inconvenient when I need the passcode to enable installations.

Hi there Kintzo,


If you set up content restrictions for the App Store or specific apps, it's normal for the Screen Time passcode to be requested when attempting to update content that is restricted by those settings. You always have the option of turning off content restrictions. Learn more about how that works here: Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Take care.
