If you want to restrict certain websites from being accessed on iPhone or iPad, this is easy to do. Before iOS 12, you could do this in the General area of the Settings app under Restrictions. But with the new Screen Time feature, you’ll need to head to a different spot.

Here’s how to now block access to specific websites on iPhone or iPad.

Restricting access in the Screen Time settings

Open your Settings and then follow these steps.

1) Tap Screen Time.

2) If you are setting this up for a child with your Family Sharing account, tap their name, select Content & Privacy Restrictions, and enter your Family Sharing passcode. If it’s for the device you are currently on, just select Content & Privacy Restrictions.

3) Make sure that the Content & Privacy Restrictions setting is enabled with the slider as green.

4) Tap Content Restrictions.
