This has to do with screen time restrictions. Go to settings>screen time>content and privacy restrictions and make sure that the switch by allow account changes is on


You can also try and turn off screen time alltoegether.


After this, try and access your account settings again

If an app or feature on your device is not working, not appearing, or is restricted (grayed out), it may have been disabled using Screen Time, or by an IT administrator if you are using a device owned by an employer or educational institution.

Tap Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy > scroll to Allow Changes.
