When trying to limit a child user's screen time, I selected "All Apps & Categories" (Settings>Screen Time>App Limits>Add Limit). However, once the daily limit was reached, Instagram remained accessible.
Does Apple have some special contract with Meta to let Instagram bypass Sceen Time Limits? Why else will this not function properly?

I have the same issue with my daughter’s phone just recently only with Instagram. She upgraded to IOS 18 not sure if there is a bypass but I need to get this fixed asap!
