Maintaining children’s online safety and promoting healthy digital habits is imperative for parents, and striking a balance is crucial. Today, we are introducing new tools for parents to manage their child’s devices with Google Family Link.

Family Link’s redesigned interface

Family Link’s updated design is more user-friendly for parents, allowing for seamless navigation. A new Screen Time tab centralizes all screen-time management tools in a single, easily accessible location. Alongside the app and device-specific usage summary and time limits, the Screen Time tab also facilitates the setting and adjustment of Downtime and School time.

Parents will find it easier than ever to manage their child’s account, privacy settings, and content filters on the Controls tab. We have streamlined key controls, allowing parents to access the necessary settings with ease, including account data settings, app downloads, and website blocking.

Managing multiple children and their devices is also becoming more efficient. Users can simply swipe between child profiles and manage devices from a single page, with advanced settings readily available just a tap away.
