To make Safari always allow Screen Time on your child’s iOS device, you can follow these step-by-step instructions:
1. Start by opening the Settings app on your child’s iOS device. This can be done by tapping on the “Settings” icon, usually found on the home screen.
2. In the Settings menu, scroll down and look for the “Screen Time” option. It is usually located in the second section of options, just below “Do Not Disturb” and above “Privacy”.
3. Tap on the “Screen Time” option to open the Screen Time settings.
4. Inside the Screen Time settings, you will find various options related to managing and controlling your child’s device usage. Look for the “Content & Privacy Restrictions” option and tap on it.
5. If you have already set up content and privacy restrictions, you might be prompted to enter your Screen Time passcode to proceed. Enter your passcode to continue. If you haven’t set up content and privacy restrictions before, you will be guided through the process of creating a passcode.
6. Once you are inside the Content & Privacy Restrictions menu, you will see a list of different categories and options. Look for the “Allowed Apps” option and tap on it.
7. In the Allowed Apps menu, you will find a list of apps that can be allowed or disallowed on your child’s device. Look for “Safari” in the list and toggle the switch next to it to either ON or OFF, depending on your preference.
8. Turning the toggle switch ON will allow Safari to be used on the device, while turning it OFF will restrict access to Safari.
9. Once you have made your selection, you can exit the Settings app. The changes you made to the Safari permissions will take effect immediately.
It is worth noting that by allowing Safari, your child will have access to the internet and may encounter content that is not suitable for their age. It is important to regularly monitor their browsing activities and discuss appropriate internet usage with them.
If you have forgotten your Screen Time passcode, you can follow Apple’s instructions to reset it. This typically involves using your Apple ID and going through a verification process.
Remember, it is crucial to have open and honest conversations with your child about responsible internet usage and to set appropriate restrictions to ensure their safety and well-being online.
