Kids bypass screen time limits from parents Lock Screen Seems my kids have learned a new way to bypass Apple's screen time limits. Forget using Messages with YouTube links, changing the system date, or all the other hacks. Those are old battles that were marginally win-able. My 11 year old has learned how to grant herself, AND HER BROTHER, any screen time request they submit. She submits the request and then walks over to any other device in the house with the parent as the Apple ID (iPhone, iPad, MacBook, etc). (Devices are on iOS 13.3) On the Lock Screen, she touches and holds the screen time request notification until it produces a screen time drop down menu to approve the request for 15 minutes, 1 hour, or All Day. Of course, she picks All Day. Smart kid. Unless I want to hide all my devices, which is a losing battle, there is no workaround. Will Apple fix this bug?

screen time is ridiculous. Any child can bypass in two minutes Is there any way to apply my screen time limits to my CHILD's PHONE rather than, ahem, my child's apple id? Figure out from my question how easy it is for any child to bypass your settings in a matter of minutes. Screen time does not block the PHONE. Any way to fix this? thanks for nothing, apple
