I'm unable to disable explicit music in Apple Music

I cannot disable explicit music in Apple Music. All support articles that I come across state that I need to go into Screen Time. As for why Apple engineers decided to dig such a simple option so deep within settings is a topic for another day.


Once I’m in my Screen Time -> Content and Privacy Restrictions -> Media & Apple Music = the only option there is:


Allow Changes

Don't Allow Changes


There is nothing about Clean or Explicit content.


This option does appear under my children’s Screen Time, but not on my own phone.


Can anyone help me find this elementary option please? I’m completely flabbergasted.


I’m using iPhone 14 Pro and 17.5.1.


Many thanks!

You are not using the right Screen Time setting. Instead go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Content Restrictions > Music, Podcast, News.., and change that one to Clean.


It can also be done online here:
