I’m looking for a parental control app for iOS 17 that allows me to not only restrict apps etc but also lets me over-ride the schedule and allow the kiddo to play as I see fit.

We were using the Screentime Labs app on android. But on iOS it doesn’t work well.

    The native Screen Time feature has this functionality. The child can request extra time. Or, you can turn it off for a while.

      The only problem is that the only increments are 15 min or 1hr or all day. Nothing in-between. Bah

        Are there any other options out there?

          Apple recently added support for the Screen Time API, allowing third-party apps to use Screen Time features. Check the App Store for alternatives, but you should stick to the system one, the most reliable technically speaking
