iphone screen time n app limit not working on instagram

[ConnorMcLeod]

anyone has succcess blocking the use of instagram on your kid's iphone using screen time ?

in my setup for my kid'siphone, i dont have instagram in "always allowed" app list n set one hour in app limit. but my kid can still useit beyond one hour n even continue to use it after the schedule downtime. 

i basically followed the tips intranet already but in vain. anything else to try ?

why not just delete the app from his phone?  Any download of new apps need you to key in password. 😄

I have never use instagram in my life so a bit bias there....😁

Get a new phone.

Or a new kid.

Whichever cheaper.

Instagram is Gen Z's Whatsapp.

Can try some parental control app.

But I will recommend doing it with communication with your kids. Let them understand why. If not they thought you just don't like them liao. 😅

Look like social comparison and hence capitalism,  are reaching towards a much younger crowd today.

Parents better have deep enough pockets to support consumerism and all the psychological issues that the kid may face later.

Parents spend too much money on kids.

Should have got a dumb phone.
