Reported glitches and loopholes in Apple’s parental screen time monitors are bad for parents and kids, a New Jersey congressman said at an event Monday, where he vowed to press the tech giant to fix the issues. Rep. Josh Gottheimer voiced his frustration over the reported issues at an event where he was joined by educators and mental health advocates at the Ridgewood YMCA, he announced in a release about the event. The congressman spoke about the issues parents have reported with the software, which has features that prevent children from spending too much time on their phones and from viewing inappropriate content.

Screen Time allows users to track how much time they and their kids spend on their devices and gives customers the option to set limits, according to Apple’s website. The software’s Content & Privacy Restrictions make it possible for users to block or limit specific content or features on a device, according to the company.
