Screen Time: A solution for Parental Control
Screen time is a feature or perhaps an app available on iPhones, iPad, and MacBooks. The sole purpose of screen time is to limit or configure time management while using your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Since this application is built for time management, you can check how many applications have you used. How many times you have accessed the phone and how many notifications you have received in different periods? In any case, you can self-monitor yourself to manage your own time on the screen of your iPhone, iPad and Mac. In simple terms, you can limit the hours of use of your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Block notifications for focusing better on other things and finally making sure that you do not use your iPhone, iPad, or Mac at certain times. Based on the age category, access to the settings and contents will be limited. Screen Time for Family: Aside from self-monitoring yourself using screen time, there is another part which is called screen time for family. In this section, you are creating a new Apple ID or in simple terms parent Apple ID where you can include your children who are using apple devices such as iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Based on the age group all the family members will be under the supervision of the parent’s Apple ID. In the screen time for the family, you can monitor your children’s activity, including the applications that he uses. Whenever they are using and what type of content they are accessing. And finally, you can implement the necessary restrictions on your children’s phones directly from your screen time. Once you implement the screen time restrictions, to use the phone they must enter the password which you have, not them. Please keep in mind that all of these restrictions will be applied remotely. And the screen time is only working across apple devices. Unlike Google’s family link which works both across Android and iOS.
