How to set a YouTube time limit on iPhone, and why YouTube's own reminders don't stop you (2026)

Ayumu Kitabayashi, developer of the minulo app, explains how the Ignore Limit button in iPhone Screen Time often undermines app restrictions for Instagram and YouTube. While users set time limits, this button allows them to bypass restrictions easily. Kitabayashi discusses how to remove this feature on iOS 27 and evaluates YouTube's internal reminders. His app, minulo, provides an alternative by opening YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok with Reels, Shorts, and similar feeds hidden to reduce distractions.
