Bad user experience

My child requested for allowing websites and that doesn’t get affect even though I add it to allow list . It’s frustrating especially while his class is about to start and needs this access.

InitialT

Doesn’t work on iOS 26

Straight up it doesn’t work correctly if you want audit your children’s websites without getting in their way. There are three levels: block, warn and monitor. Even if you choose monitor, if will both block and warn. Even if you specifically allow the website and all associated categories, it will still block and warn. Yes, I resynced the app multiple times. I had the same issue across multiple children on multiple devices. I’m done trying to fix it and uninstalling it.
