my phone screentime turns off without my parents doing it

Every night, my screentime turns off a 10pm. My parents set that for me across all of my devices. My problem is that every sunday it turns off at 6pm. It says "screentime will be limited until 10pm" and then obviously it turns off at 10pm. I've asked my dad three times and he says that he doesn't know what's going on or how to fix it. I've been told that this has happened to other people before so i'm hoping for a way to fix it.

iPhone 13, iOS 16

Your parents 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.
