Apple account restrictions on iPhone

On my iPhone in the settings where it shows my apple account info it say “sign out is not available due to restrictions.” I’m not understanding why I would have any restrictions on my account or when my account got any kind of restriction

It could be you who set the restrictions, or somebody managing your device in a professional context.


If an app or feature on your device is not working, not appearing, or is restricted (grayed out), a frequent reason is 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 your Settings app > Screen Time > Content & Privacy > scroll to Allow Changes and turn on.


- If the device is managed (Settings > General > VPN & Device Management), contact the IT department that is doing the managing.
