Bugs in Screentime

Please fix the screentime function.

  1. Whenever I check my child's screentime status, I find the “Block at End of Limit” button turned off.
  2. I have also noticed that the web content selection has an issue, which sometimes adds previously or currently restricted websites to the “always allowed:”.


But before anyone highlights the commonly suggested fixes, I have tried all of them. I truly believe that there is a bug and it needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 17

Ensure both your and your child’s devices are running the latest version of iOS.


Restart both devices to see if it resolves temporary glitches.


Reconfigure Screen Time Settings


Try resetting the Screen Time settings to see if it resolves the issue.


• Go to Settings > Screen Time > [child’s device name] > Turn Off Screen Time.

• Restart the device, then re-enable and reconfigure Screen Time settings.


Check for Conflicting Settings


Ensure there are no conflicting settings or profiles installed on the device that might be causing issues.


• Go to Settings > General > VPN & Device Management to check for any installed profiles that might affect Screen Time.
