Easy way to surpass locking the Screen Time settings.

Feature Request🍏 iOS

Unfortunately I found an easy way to disable the Screen Time Settings, even if you block the shortcut app and go into a strict block. You can just swipe down in the menu, press WLAN settings and open the settings this way. If you do it like that, you can disable the Screen Time Lock which is very unfortunate.

    Screen time lock not working for app settings

    The screen time password does not actually block the app settings for one sec. „screen time restrictions“ toggle can be freely disabled only requiring face id.

    If you have a password lock on screen time it should also apply here, otherwise this is a very easy way to just disable any restrictions.

    Hi, does the new iOS Screentime Lock solves this for you?

      Yes, as a workaround it totally works and this way it even allows to still have the settings app in a usable state.

    Settings block during strict block bypass

    If you have the shortcut setup where opening settings during a strict block opens one sec, you can just open control center, click the WiFi settings and then open settings, which then allows you to disable one sec, change screen time settings, etc. idk if this is solvable but this would be an amazing feature.
