  2. Scroll down and select the Content & Privacy Restrictions option [0:35].
  3. Tap on the Content Restrictions section, then choose the Web Content setting [0:44].
  4. Select the Limit Adult Websites option and tap the Add Website button under the Never Allow header to type in the URL you want to block [1:22].
  5. If you ever need to unblock a site, simply swipe left on the address in your list and tap the Delete button.

Ninja Tip: Set a Screen Time passcode by selecting Use Screen Time Passcode in the main Screen Time menu to prevent others from changing your restrictions.

If these restrictions still do not apply as expected, perform a network settings reset by going to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
