To add Safari to your allowed apps, you need to adjust your device's Screen Time settings, specifically within the Content & Privacy Restrictions section.
Understanding Allowed Apps in Screen Time
Devices like iPhones and iPads utilize Screen Time to help users manage their device usage. A key feature of Screen Time is Content & Privacy Restrictions, which allows you to control access to apps, features, and content. If Safari is not appearing on your home screen or is inaccessible, it's often due to these restrictions. By adding Safari to "Allowed Apps," you grant permission for it to be used.
Step-by-Step Guide to Allow Safari
Follow these steps to enable Safari through your device's settings:
- Open the Settings app on your device.
- Scroll down and tap on Screen Time.
- Tap Content & Privacy Restrictions.
- You may be prompted to enter your Screen Time Passcode. Enter it to proceed.
- Within the "Content & Privacy Restrictions" menu, tap Allowed Apps & Features.
- Locate "Safari®" in the list.
- Move the "Safari®" toggle switch to the right to turn it on. The switch will turn green, indicating that Safari is now allowed and should be accessible on your device.
Once these steps are completed, Safari will be re-enabled and available for use on your device.
