My 13-year-old keeps finding ways around the restrictions, and I’m worried about his screen time. I tried changing the settings on my parent app, but it seems like the phone is locked down tight. Is there a way to unlink his device completely without doing a factory reset?
Hey elitebased! Google Family Link is pretty robust, so unlinking without a factory reset is tricky because it’s designed to prevent exactly that. However, for more flexible and less bypassable control, you might want to check out Phonsee—it offers discreet monitoring and can help manage screen time more effectively. Have you considered tracking usage alongside restrictions to catch those sneaky moments?
Hey elitebased, I get it, Family Link can be pretty tough to bypass. If you’re looking for more discreet control, maybe try out Phonsee—it’s free and offers better screen time management without breaking the bank. Are any of the paid apps too pricey for you?
