Reinstall and change email address

  1. Open iPad/iPhone/iPod Settings General  >> Restrictions, and make sure they are disabled.
  2. Open the Settings on the device and go to General >> Profiles & Device Management >> Screen Time Profile >> Remove Management. If there’s no profile in this section then you can skip this step.
  3. Go into Screen Time on your device (parent’s device), and delete the iPhone, iPad, or iPod from there. If you’re not sure how to do that then check out this page. If you’re not sure what email address you used during the first install then can you contact our support team and send them your account ID, check this page to see where to find that.
  4. Reinstall the app again on the device, this will allow you to reinstall with a new email address.

If you have any problems then please get in touch with our support team and we’ll see if we can help you figure out why Screen Time is not working for you.
