Block at downtime or at end of app limit

My daughter's tablet recently had to be reset. Now it's not blocking at downtime and allowing her to have unlimited time on apps that show an active limit.

I have checked all settings, I have double checked that 'block at downtime' is selected. I've tried removing the limits, I've honestly tried everything except for turning off screen time monitoring on her tablet or resetting the thing again.

Please help. This is after the most recent update to 17.3

iPad Air (4th generation)

Screen Time App Limit resets when limit is reached Hello everyone, I try to setup Screen Time App Limits for my kids, and it simply does not work. Each time a limit is reached, instead of blocking access to the app, the time spent on the app becomes uncategorized (it becomes displayed as a gray bar). Here is an example: I have a limit set to one hour per day for Brawl Star. In the screenshot below we can see my kid has been playing Brawl Star for 53 minutes. Normally, he should have only 7 minutes left. In this other screenshot, we can see that the Brawl Star time went down to 18 minutes, and all the Games category time became uncategorized. This happens all day long, for any App Limit I set. I have tried every tips I could find about that. Turning on/off Screen Time, resetting my kids iPhone, etc. Nothing works. I am out of ressources here, can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Issue with Screen Time After iOS 26 Update iphone 14 pro ios 26.1 Issue with Screen Time After iOS 26 Update Hello, I am 16 years old and using Screen Time under my parents’ supervision. After updating to iOS 26, I started experiencing several issues. First, my app usage time is being recorded as website links instead of the actual apps. Second, even when I still have plenty of available Screen Time remaining, apps suddenly become blocked. Sometimes, when I open a specific app, other unrelated apps also get blocked. If I turn my device off and on and unlock it repeatedly (around ten times), the apps eventually become accessible again, but this is extremely inconvenient—especially when I need to do something important or quickly. Additionally, I would like to mention that currently, when I delete an app, the related Screen Time usage history is removed as well. I prefer this behavior to remain unchanged. While resolving the issues I reported above, please ensure that this specific behavior—deleting an app also deleting its usage history—does not change. Please look into these issues and provide a fix. Thank you.
