Screen time requests in texts now?!

What on earth is this? And how do I turn it off? Being in the text messages is ridiculous! It’s clogging up the text thread between myself and my kids. And the other incredibly annoying this is now I cannot approve it on my watch?

The notifications used to come up on my watch and I could approve on there. As I do not have my phone on me 24/7!! Now the texts tells me to open my phone and do it there! I can’t use my watch at all for approval as now?!


this is ridiculous! I’ve had to delete so many texts today from my kids!


I need to turn this text nonsense off and go back to the way it was. How do I do this?!
