iPhone Screen Time Requests will now come as Message
However, with the latest update, this has undergone a change that literally no one asked for. All the requests for time extensions from your children will now come directly to the iMessage. And there are quite a few issues with that. For starters, it will mess up the chat screen and make it all the more cluttered. Moreover, there is no single option to delete all these requests at once, you will have to manually do so, which calls for unnecessary and additional time and effort. Moreover, this implementation in itself is currently broken, with parents unable to grant the request in just one go as the approval mechanism isn’t working along the expected lines. On top of that, most of these requests are stuck on the forever-loading loop. To make matter worse, children keep on spamming their parents with requests thinking that they might not have received them yet. All in all, it’s totally messy out there!
Its implementation could have been much better
Look, we don’t have much issues with requests coming to iMessage but rather the problem is the way this functionality has been implemented. It would have been much better if these requests would have been deleted right after we had granted or revoked them, instead of making a permanent abode on our chat screen. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case, and as is the case with all other Apple changes we don’t have any say in this either.
