Parental controls need an update

I control my daughter’s time and content on her iPad with my iPhone.

I have 2 major issues with the parental controls.

1) there is no off switch. Sometimes she sneaks screen time when she should be doing chores or homework. I would like to be able to make the decision when she can start. As it is, I have to adjust her downtime or app limits, both of which are set to my satisfaction.

2) app limits are vague/ confusing. I have all games, YouTube, socials set for an hour’s time on one instance of app limits. How do I know she isn’t getting an hour of each or an hour for all?

She seems to always be on! Thank you!
