screen time not blocking daughters iphone

Hi,


I have 3 children, 2 with iPads and 1 with an iPhone 6. Screen time is set the same for all and works perfectly on the iPads but the iPhone still works after the downtime block start time. All have the latest iOS12 and have reset the device and turned off the screen time and on again. Any ideas of settings on the phone that might stop the block from working?


thanks


Chris

Under downtime, you must select “block at downtime” otherwise the apps stay put. Is this checked on the phone?
