Hi bigblockburnout,
Thanks for posting. It sounds like you want to add an email account to a device that might have Screen Time set up.
You should be able to add an email account using these steps: Add an email account to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Depending on how you have Screen Time set up, you may need to adjust your settings to allow changes to Accounts & Passwords as shown here: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
You can allow changes to other settings and features, the same way you can allow changes to privacy settings.
- Go to Settings and tap Screen Time.
- Tap Content & Privacy Restrictions. If asked, enter your passcode.
- Under Allow Changes, select the features or settings you want to allow changes to and choose Allow or Don't Allow.Â
Here are some features and settings you can allow changes for:
- Passcode Changes:Â Prevent changes to your passcode.
- Account Changes: Prevent changes to settings for Accounts & Passwords
- Cellular Data Changes: Prevent changes to cellular data settings
- Volume Limit: Prevent changes to volume settings for safe listening
- Do Not Disturb While Driving: Prevent changes to Do Not Disturb While Driving
- TV Provider: Prevent changes to TV provider settings
- Background App Activities: Prevent changes to whether or not apps run in the background."
Have a good one.
