Hello - does anyone know how to restrict Netflix using Screentime? I initially selected specific categories including entertainment, which I assumed Netflix would fall under since the category does not show all of the apps that fall under it, to restrict between 10pm - 7am, however, Netflix still works even if I select all categories under App Limits.
Thank you!
The App Limits section only allows setting limits for app usage by amount of time, i.e 1 hour, 2 hours etc.., there is no specification of time range.
The time range limitation is set in Down Time. You can specify the downtime for the iPad for a particular period of time, and then go to the Always Allow section, to add or remove apps that will be allowed in that time frame. Any App not added to the Allow list, will not be available, be darkened in the home screen, and will not be able to be launched during Down Time
Remember to set a passcode, so the limitation cannot be ignored.

Somehow it started working without me doing anything to it, but I believe it has to do with the fact the battery died.
So, I guess it’s fair to say that restarting would have resolved the issue.
Thank you!
