Hello everyone!

There’s an iPad in my family which was setup as a kid’s device since day 1. There was never an option for Private browsing on the ipad, likely because it’s a kid’s device and Apple thinks that kids probably don’t deserve any privacy.

Now, I wanted to enable the option but don’t see any way to do that. Also, didn’t find any solution online anywhere. Found only one possible solution by disabling and enabling Content Restriction settings for Web Content but it did nothing.

Anyone has any idea how to resolve this without having to format the device for a different user (or without having to wait for several years for the child to grow older)?

When you enabled all content for safari did you close safari fully and do a complete restart of the device?
