My son’s phone is under screen time restrictions for pretty much all the ‘fun’ apps.

He went mad at me today for not having screen time on Snapchat but I showed him he’d been on it for two hours!

However when I dug deeper, iPhone screen time was showing that he’d been on it for half an hour between midnight and 1am and then other times until 4am.

Now I know this isn’t possible as the phone was being charged downstairs and he isn’t smart enough to be able to turn the alarm off to get at it during the night.

How can this have happened? Could it be the dog having a quick browse?

Not logged in on another device is he and the screen time is showing for “all devices” rather than specific?

It's quite the assumption to assume your son can't turn off a house alarm, just hide all of his devices before bed to be sure
