Thank you for making some great updates to this app. Works much better. Love that it must be unlocked with a fingerprint, probably the best part of it now. Now my son can't get access. Thank you again.
Should be an option to lock the console from the app. Other than that, great app
If I add 2 hours one day, it's 2 hours from then on unless I remember to change it back. (Google Family Link has different limits for each child, and I can give bonus time and it goes back to set limits after.) A child can use any other child's profile, accessing content inappropriate for their age. Adding a pin would fix this. It would also allow for individual time limits. If the wifi is off, I have no control. I can't add time or lock it. Also needs a "where's my device" feature.
Same issue as other parents, there needs to be a start time added. I don't want the kids playing before a certain time so I have to keep time set to 0mins and then add time each day. What a pain to manage when it could be an added feature. I would also like to see the time restriction be available for each game like Google allows for its parental controls.
Great
It is great. We have no fights over time it becomes a natural part of the day to have that time together to play and then do other activities.
To hard to find area to set time limits
Easy to use and useful, Other platforms should be ashamed they don't offer this for parents.
Love being able to limit screen time and know what my kids are playing and for how long!
I would like to have individuals kids track
