ScreenTime permissions revoked on app update from TestFlight or App Store

An app that uses screen time API. After asking for permission and receiving them works, everything generally work, shields applications etc.. Upon new version update (manually update from testFlight old version or App Store) I get an error message, I can then update again without any error but the permissions are revoked and I have to ask for them again. shielding stopes. This happens randomly on TestFlight or App Store and the permissions Did anyone encounter this or solved this?

  • this seems to have started a month ago but maybe I just missed it before

Yes, facing the same issue here when the version is updated, although the bug isn't consistent. We face it 50% of the times. When this happens, reinstalling the app/ granting the screentime permissions again solves this issue.
