How Can I Stop My Kids from Bypassing App Limits on Their iPhones?

Asked By CuriousCat92 On

I've discovered that my kids have been figuring out ways to get around the app limits I've set up on their old iPhones. I've adjusted these limits during school days and breaks, but when they reach the limit, they see options like 'One More Minute,' 'Remind Me in 15 Minutes,' and 'Ignore Limit for Today.' I want to know why these options exist and how I can effectively enforce the limits. Is there a way to prevent them from bypassing these restrictions?

It's tough when you think you're doing everything right and then find out there are loopholes. Using more hands-on parenting isn't a bad idea either, but definitely enable that block feature for peace of mind!

You’ll want to check for the 'Block at End of Limit' option in your settings. This requires setting a Screen Time Passcode, and once it’s enabled, your kids won’t be able to bypass the limits anymore. This feature may have been added in a recent update, which could be why you missed it before! Just toggle that on, and you should be good to go.

Definitely a good idea to look into that setting! It's frustrating that they can just ignore limits so easily. Enabling the block feature is key to making those limits actually work. It’s kind of wild they can just bypass it like that without any alerts to you.
