In reply to January.

Hello, the Down Time may not restrict the system apps or Safari app. If you carefully follow the steps in the guide, you will notice the Content & Privacy Restriction option that will hide the Safari app from the App Library and even Search. Alternatively, you can set the ‘App Limit’ to restrict the Safari browser to stop after certain time period.

Ensure that you’ve not add the Safari under ‘Always Allowed’ app.

This actually doesn’t work to block safari anymore.
I have it disabled in down time, but it is still allowed, with unrestricted access.

I would say this, I think the iPad and Safari don’t work as a desktop browser all the time. I liked it better when Safari on the iPad was much like Safari on my iPhone. Full desktop sites don’t always display or work correctly. Mobile sites are better designed for touch screens and seem to function better. Apple of course wants Safari on an iPad to act more like Safari on a Mac. But in my experience, it just isn’t a great experience on the iPad.
