Apple Restrictions Won’t Turn Off

I am now 18 but when i wasn’t my parents put restrictions on my phone when it came to downloading apps. Now all of those restrictions have been turned off on both mine and my parents devices but it still prompts me to ask and won’t let me download alone. This is really frustrating and we’ve done seemingly everything to try and fix it, but nothing works. I have the Iphone 12

iPhone 6s

Set this Up as your OWN iPhone:

You need to have your parents remove your iPhone from their Apple Account. Then, you need to create your own Apple ID. From there, sign in to this with your own Apple ID. Note that Apple IDs should never be shared.
