Screen time limits not working

Can someone provide me with some help for the screen time limits. They don’t seem to be working. I’ve tried turning screen time on and off, turning the phone on and off, ensuring the apps aren’t set to always allow, and ensuring that each app has a specific time limit. Even after the limit, they’re still accessible.

Same issue, but it seems anything over 59 minutes and the screen time limits don’t work anymore. What gives apple?

Sometimes it helps to have the devices involved take a fresh look at settings:

- Try signing out of accounts and back in again.


If a problem persists, particularly over several days, try contacting Apple for assistance:


Click here --> Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
