Screen Time constantly glitchy - Latest issue

App limits magically change themselves now.


I have screen capture video of it happening. I set a time limit for All Apps. I then exit the screen, go back, and in front of my eyes it changes to Social, Games, & 7 more. My kids are literally sitting in front of me, no one is changing it.


Ive done a power cycle (turn off and back on), deleted the limit and re-added as a new one, toggled the setting off and back on. Half of the time this whole system doesn’t work at all. I basically have to track the time myself and kick them off.


set as:

I've been having this happen to all of my kids screen time settings for the last year plus! It seems to happen whenever there is an update, either about to be released or just after its released. Installing the update does not fix it. I have to keep going in and correcting it until it "sticks" again. Its also interesting because I have 3 kids with different screen time settings and the "reset" effects each one differently. Also I have screen recordings too of it magically resetting itself!
