Parenting-control: Malefunction?

Hello!


Im trying to set up screentime on my kids iPhone. I decide screentime and what Apps he can use after a certain time, especially at night. But when I go back, and check the settings again, they’re not turned on, and I have to set it up again.


I go back, and the same happens. Why is it not working?
