There's no way to delete
Ignore Limit. There's a fix.

Ignore Limit only shows up because of one specific setting. When an App Limit is reached, iOS defaults to a warning screen with "Ignore Limit for 15 Minutes" and "Ignore Limit for Today." That's the default behavior, not a fixed one.

Block at End of Limit changes that default. Turn it on for a limit, and reaching that limit blocks the app outright instead of showing the ignore option. It's hidden until you set a Screen Time passcode, which is the first real step.

The steps below apply the same way whether you're setting this up on your own phone or on a child's device through Family Sharing, with one difference in who holds the passcode.

1. Set a Screen Time passcode. Go to Settings, then Screen Time, then Lock Screen Time Settings, and create a passcode. Block at End of Limit stays hidden until this exists.

2. Open App Limits. In Screen Time, tap App Limits, then select an existing limit or add a new one for the app or category you want blocked.

3. Enter your Screen Time passcode. You'll be asked for it before you can edit the limit's settings.

4. Turn on Block at End of Limit. This is the toggle that actually removes the Ignore Limit prompt and replaces it with a real block once time runs out.

5. Repeat for every limit. This setting is per limit, not global, so you need to turn it on separately for each app or category you've set a limit for.

6. Recheck it after making changes. Editing a limit or the passcode can silently reset this toggle back off, so it's worth confirming it's still on after any nearby change.

The steps are the same, with one key difference: who holds the passcode. Go to Settings, then Screen Time, then Family, then select your child's name, confirm a Screen Time passcode exists, then go to App Limits and turn on Block at End of Limit for each limit.

The passcode has to stay with you, not your child. On a personal device, you already know your own passcode, which is why this setting matters much less for self-managed accounts than for child accounts where a parent controls the code.

Decline Screen Time Passcode Recovery when you set the passcode. By default, Apple lets you reset a forgotten Screen Time passcode using your Apple ID password, which quietly reopens the door you just closed. Skipping that recovery option removes that specific reset path.

Generate a passcode you won't remember. Typing a code in, deleting it, and repeating that a few times before confirming can leave you without a clear memory of what you set, which is a real (if slightly chaotic) trick some people use.

Having someone else hold the passcode has real downsides. It depends on having someone trustworthy and reachable, it's inconvenient to ask every time, and it doesn't help in a moment where you need real access. It works better as a short-term measure than a permanent plan.

Everything above is about configuring Apple's own tool correctly. It's the right fix if you want to keep using Screen Time's App Limits and just close the Ignore Limit gap.

Fella is for people who'd rather not manage this setting at all. There's no separate "block at end of limit" toggle to remember, because there's no ignore option built into the experience in the first place. You pick your apps once, they stay blocked by default, and you get one 5-minute emergency unlock per day.
