When Apple introduced Screen Time, many parents cheered. The new tool promised, among other things, the ability to gain perfect control over the way children use their iOS devices and, if necessary, limit the time spent on a mobile or tablet, or block certain applications or content on the web. But kids are resourceful, and they've played a cat-and-mouse game with Apple to exploit Screen Time's vulnerability to their advantage.
For example, the website writes about how children try to bypass Screen Time settings and how to detect and neutralize these tricks Protect Young Eyes. It's no surprise that these parenting tips are in turn being widely shared by kids who are happy to work on coming up with a counterattack. The simplicity of control, so typical of all applications and tools from Apple, works against both sides. "This is not rocket science, backdoor or dark web hacking," Chris McKenna, founder of the aforementioned website and the initiative of the same name, points out, adding that he is shocked that Apple did not actually anticipate this kind of activity from children's users.
Although Apple has been trying to continuously improve the tool since the introduction of Screen Time, there are some gaps in it. Children are resourceful enough and invent ways to take advantage of shortcomings. Although Apple does not address specific problems, it does promise future improvements. Apple spokeswoman Michele Wyman said in an emailed statement that the company is committed to providing its users with powerful tools to manage their iOS devices, and that it is constantly working to make these tools even better. However, specific errors are not mentioned in this statement.

When I was little, I could play snake and space impact II on the 3310 for as long as I wanted :)
I thought I would learn here how to get around it and what the tricks are, but I would probably like that too much, right? ? ??♂️
You're right
You do not say
a meaningless article.. a waste of time and a bitter aftertaste and a question mark over your head after reading it. It could be summed up in one sentence. Terror. Please don't write anymore.
Exactly, I read it three times to make sure I didn't miss it, but it's not really there, right?
I guess so
Is this some new trend on your website, that the articles end in a pile and the question from the title is not answered at all? Do you have any letters that you can share on FB, but the content no longer matters? :-/
You're right, useless articles
When the time is up, just uninstall the application and install it in the AppStore using the cloud icon, then it runs without restrictions. I don't understand why nobody writes it here and someone else has to write it. ?
when I run out of time, I restart my mobile and after restarting, the mobile realizes after maybe half an hour that it should block me
My brother tries to do it too, but it doesn't matter to him - his parents always figure it out..🤦♀️
Hello, I have the opposite problem. I set a screen time limit for myself and whenever I needed to, I either turned it off for that day or moved it up by 15 minutes. However, this function stopped working for me on its own, and I cannot turn off or extend the screen time. Does anyone know what can be done about it? thanks for the anwers
so I'm reading it here like a moron to find out how to get around it, and the other night, if you're already posting it here, at least add how to get around it or how the kids hanged it as you write here
