Hi there! My kids all have iOS devices and we use Screen Time to control their devices. I have recently created them a Standard account on my Mac Mini (I am the admin). However, today I used it and they have deleted apps from their account (Pages/Numbers etc..) and it’s removed them from mine! I went into the Screen Time settings but I can’t see how I can stop them deleting things. I’m sure in the past a standard user had to type an admin password?

I can see there is an option in the Screen Time to restrict deleting apps, but it’s under a section for iOS I still want them to be able to delete apps off their phone, just not the communal Mac.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
