Filter age-appropriate content with custom controls.
With Enhanced Parental Controls, you can tailor the content filter to your kids’ specific age groups to craft a digital experience that grows with them. Whether it’s shielding your youngest from mature themes or gradually opening up the settings for your older ones, customization ensures that the content accessed fits every stage of your children’s lives.
| Child | Pre-teen | Teen |
| 0-8 years old | 9-12 years old | 13-18 years old |
Limit gaming time.
If your kids are big gamers, Enhanced Parental Controls can rein in their playing time on the phone, computer and even gaming consoles and smart TVs. Set the days and times your kids can play (and for how long) so they can’t be lured away from schoolwork by Roblox, Minecraft and other online games. Plus, with multiple profiles, you can easily customize those controls based on your children’s ages and needs.
Reduce study distractions.
Empower your children with disciplined digital habits that complement their remote learning style. Enhanced Parental Controls transforms devices into allies rather than distractions. With screen time limits and bedtime curfews, you can create routines for dedicated school work and scheduled downtime. This helps your learners maximize focus during crucial study hours and eliminate the temptation of mindless scrolling at night.
