Hi Hydrafalls,


It sounds like you had some questions about using Screen Time and we can help.


You can set up Screen Time on your iPhone and iPad, and choose not to share across your devices:

Use Screen Time on all your devices
To share your Screen Time settings and reports across all your devices, make sure you’re signed in with the same Apple ID on each device and Share Across Devices is turned on.
1. Go to Settings  > Screen Time.
2. Scroll down, then turn on Share Across Devices.

Keep track of your screen time on iPhone


Setting it up this way will allow you to have separate Screen Time on each device. You could even just turn off Screen Time entirely on iPad.


Here's more Screen Time info:

Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
