Screen Screen button missing on Facetime: iPhone 14

A little while ago, my parent disabled it because of a screen time glitch, that’s since been fixed, and somehow disabled it. I’ve recently told them that it was fixed and permitted me to allow it again, but the setting by is not there, all of the requirements for it are enabled, and the button still doesn’t appear. My shareplay is on also. I have a iPhone 14 and it is fully updated as well. Please help if you can. Thank you

Your parents or the Screen Time organiser must enable SharePlay on your device through the Screen Time settings on their own device.

Ask them to follow these steps:

Open Settings on their iPhone or iPad.
Go to Screen Time.
Under the Family section, select your name.
Tap Content & Privacy Restrictions.
Select Allowed Apps & Features.
Find SharePlay and make sure it is enabled.

Once SharePlay is enabled, check whether the Screen Sharing button appears during a FaceTime call on your iPhone.

Important: Enabling SharePlay in your iPhone's own settings may not be sufficient if the Screen Time organiser has restricted it through parental controls. The organiser must allow it from the Screen Time settings they manage for you.
