Have to approve extra screen time twice

Hello, whenever I need to approve extra time for myself, the app never responds to it the first time. Either the popup goes away and the entire app is frozen, and when closing out shows that it is still locked and I have to enter in extra time again. Or it works for 5 seconds and then the screen time popup shows up again. Any advice on how to make it stop doubling would be appreciated. Thanks

iPhone 13

Hi fhr_dew,


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.


It sounds like Screen Time alerts aren't responding on the first touch. If you haven't already, let's restart your device and make sure you're running the latest software for the most recent performance fixes.


If this continues, try disabling Screen Time in Settings > Screen and enabling it again.


Regards.
