How to resolve the "Restrictions Enabled" error on Apple News?

Every time I try to open Apple News, it just shows “Restrictions Enabled

Certain apps, features, or services can't be seen or used when Restrictions are on. To use this app, turn Restrictions off.” But when I check Restrictions, they’re off.


is there a way to fix this?

Thank you for the screenshot.


Enable Apple News in ScreenTime:

It appears ScreenTime is set up on this. So, enable Maps in ScreenTime settings.

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: Screen Time
  3. Tap: Content & Privacy Restrictions
  4. Enter: Passcode (if asked)
  5. Go to: Privacy
  6. Tap: News (so that is reads Allow)
