Features to Help You Establish Digital Ground Rules

With Family Link, you have the power to set daily screen time limits for your child's device. This allows you to find a healthy balance between screen time and other activities. You can also create schedules for school time and downtime, ensuring your child is not spending too much time on their device.

Managing your child's apps has never been easier. With Family Link, you can set individual time limits for each app, as well as unlimited time for educational or regularly used apps. You also have the option to block certain apps altogether, giving you complete control over your child's app usage.

Ensuring Your Child's Online Safety and Privacy

As a parent, it's important to have control over what your child sees online. With Family Link, you can set up parental controls on Google services such as Chrome, Play, YouTube, and Search. This allows you to block inappropriate sites, require approval for new apps, and manage permissions for apps and websites.

Family Link also gives you access to manage your child's account and data settings. You can change or reset their password, edit their personal information, and even delete their account if necessary. Please note that children over a certain age may be able to manage their own account.

Stay Connected with Your Child on the Go

With Family Link, you can easily locate your child on a map as long as they have their device with them. This is especially helpful when your child is out and about. You can also receive notifications and alerts when your child arrives or leaves a certain location. Additionally, you can ring their device and check its remaining battery life.
