I set up some strict daily limits for my son a few months ago, but now that his school requires more remote homework, he desperately needs extra screen time on his device. I have been poking around the dashboard on my own phone trying to adjust the app allowances, but I just keep getting completely lost in all the different menus without actually finding the right spot to save the new hours. Could somebody point me to the exact menu path or give me a quick walkthrough on where exactly to go to update these daily restrictions?
Hey falsepuma! Totally get how tricky Family Link’s menu can be—here’s a quick hack: open Family Link, select your child’s account, then tap on Manage settings > Screen time > Daily limit. There you can adjust or remove limits and save changes easily. For a more user-friendly and versatile monitoring experience, I’d recommend checking out Phonsee—it’s super streamlined for managing screen time and app restrictions. Have you tried any tools besides Family Link before?
Hey falsepuma! I know Family Link can be a maze sometimes. If you’re looking for a simpler way to manage screen time, you might want to check out Phonsee — it’s often more straightforward than the built-in options and offers some good free features. Anyway, did you try Anna Wong’s tip on managing the daily limit?
@Felix_IOS Thanks for the tip! Do you think Phonsee is easier for beginners like me? I’m still a bit lost with Family Link.
