Helping you set digital ground rules with Family Link
Family Link helps you manage your children’s accounts and ChromeOS, Android, and iOS devices as they explore online through parental controls. You can manage apps, keep an eye on screen time, and help set digital ground rules for your family.
Keep an eye on screen time
Not all screen time is the same — it can depend on whether your child is using their device to read a book, watch a video, or play a game. You can use Family Link to see which apps your child uses most and decide which ones they can access.
.

You decide what the right amount of screen time is for your child. Family Link allows you to set daily screen time limits, choose screen time schedules for school or downtime, and remotely lock your child’s Android or ChromeOS device.
Approve or decline your child’s requests to download apps or make in-app purchases from Google Play.

Secure and manage your child’s account
You can also manage what your child sees online. Adjust parental controls on Google services like Chrome, Play, YouTube, and Search. Family Link allows you to block inappropriate sites, set permissions for apps and websites, and more.
