App Restricting
I would like to allow Discord on my son's phone. But if I limit the privacy restrictions to his age it is not allowed. I cannot find a setting that allows me to go ahead and allow just that one app.

Hi Phil__B,
For help with Content & Privacy Restrictions in Screen Time, you can view the available settings you can restrict and control in the article here: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Additionally, once downloaded you would need to check the internal discord settings to see if the app has measures to restrict certain content. In the App Store it is listed as a 17+ age rating. You can find details here: App Store - Discord - Chat, Talk & Hangout
When restricting content using the steps below, and from the same article shared above the app may not work as expected even if the settings are temporarily changed to download the app.
"Prevent explicit content and content ratings
You can also prevent the playback of music with explicit content and movies or TV shows with specific ratings. Apps also have ratings that can be configured using content restrictions.
To restrict explicit content and content ratings:
- Go to Settings and tap Screen Time.
- Tap Content & Privacy Restrictions, then tap Content Restrictions.
- Choose the settings that you want for each feature or setting under Allowed Store Content."
If you'd like, feel free to leave feature feedback for Apple directly here: Product Feedback - Apple
Cheers.
