I’ve got an Android and my kid is switching to an iPhone, and I’m trying to keep the same controls on screen time, apps, and location. I can’t tell if Family Link works across like that or if I need something else-has anyone set this up successfully?
Hey christina71! Family Link is primarily designed for Android devices, so it doesn’t offer full functionality when managing an iPhone. For seamless cross-platform monitoring—screen time, app usage, and location—I highly recommend checking out Phonsee, which works great with both Android and iPhone. Have you thought about trying a dedicated parental control app like that for better compatibility?

Hey christina71! Family Link is mainly for Android, so it doesn’t really work across iPhone. I’ve been looking for affordable options myself, and honestly, the prices can be a bit steep. Have you tried any free apps like Google Family Link’s limited features or just setting up screen time restrictions manually? Sometimes, free tools can do the trick if you’re on a budget!
@Felix_IOS Thanks for the tip! Do you think those free apps really keep kids safe enough? It’s a bit confusing to choose!
