Hey hichamrizk,


We see you're unable to enable Location Services. Is Screen Time enabled: Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch? If so, go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > make sure Location Services is set to "Allow" under the Privacy section. For more information, check out this article: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.


Take care.
