How to set effective Screen Time limits on iOS?

What’s wrong with screen time? I use screen time to manage my kids usage of their iPhone/iPad and this feature does not work as expected. It allow them to continue watch beyond the limits. They can ignore the limits…

are you also having the same issue with iOS 16.4.5 and any other version before that?

The screentime limits and website blocking lists are completely useless. Kids can simply ignore limit or add website to the allowed list at a click of a button. Why this would even be included as an option is beyond me (unless they simply want kids to be addicted to their devices...)


Yes I have tried all the 'solutions'. Signed in and out of all devices hundreds of times. Wasted hours of my life. Looking at the comments it has been a problem for years.


Completely pathetic from Apple.
