Thank you , set up 2 phones by this

Great video I surprised you don’t have more likes.

Do you have any videos on tips/weaknesses of setting up an apple watch as a child's only phone? I'm searching for a solution for my 12 year old, don't want any browsers, social media, or Wi-Fi hotspot abilities. Right now I'm leaning towards a Sunbeam F1 feature phone but it doesn't seam to have gps tracking abilities for the parent. I have a series 6 (cellular) apple watch I could repurpose if it is a decent solution. My kid is clever about getting around parental (and even chromebook school IT) controls.

Very helpful! I have shared this video with the parents in my county.

Thank you for this! was wondering if there is a way to disable camera (i don't mean the camera app), basically access to camera from any app. is this possible? how?

Hi..I setup parental control on my teenager's phone. He has his own apple id and I put downtime at 10pm -7am. For the allowed apps, I added mine and my hubby's contact from my contacts list. But when we check his messages, it shows both of ours messages locked as well. Could you tell me whats wrong?

Hey, if you set a time for all apps. Does it give them that time individually for each app or does is it shared over the apps?

Hi Family Tech, thanks for this video! I've just set up my 8 year old child to the parental control system and set up the app approval option. This works well with any app that is suitable for her age but with apps that are for older kids, like 12 year old, she can't even ask for permission, the app is automatically blocked, is there any way to overrule this restriction?

Specially the features of asking for more time on an app and the ability to communicate all around after downtime with the contacts I select.

Thanks for this put on the path to make this happen somethings mentioned don't apply now or to old phones!

I dont know how old this video is but I am not getting screen time option not very clear to see where this might be either. Did the second part of your video because hes over 13 so when I tap on his name I got : Apple ID below that. subscriptions , Purchases, Location sharing and that it but no screen time or any other selections etc

Curious if there is any other reason you don't suggest having an android phone when your child has an iPhone? I do all the screen time settings from their device and it seems to work great. Plus, I don't get notifications from the kids about time limit extensions and app requests ever!

Hey, so I switched from the iPhone 14 Pro Max to the 15 Pro Max, and now the Family Share notifications aren't showing up on my iPhone anymore. They're all going to the Messages app on my MacBook instead. I'd like to get them back on my iPhone, but I couldn't find any settings for that. Any ideas?

Can you limit an iPad's usage based on a time period instead of a set schedule? For example, can I limit an iPad to only be used for a few hours per day at any given point in that day or am I limited to specific scheduling?

Yes absolutely can. But you need to sign in a new apple ID (that is referring to your child) on that iphone. They must be under 16y/o for you to control their phone

I've set this up and now my own iphone has restrictions on texts. When I get a text it has the hourglass and it says "not in your contacts" even though they are .. it allows me to "add the contact" to view the text on my phone but how do i turn this off on my parental phone?

I don’t have the plus option after I get into family sharing for some reason.

So when I’m setting this all up for my daughter and it’s asking me to make the “teen password.” Is that a password for me to know only? Or is that a password both my daughter and I should know?

Thank you, I did not know I could set up an Apple ID for a child under 13. I just used my information. Will change asap.

You don’t need a different iphone. Your internet provider can show you search history even after it’s been deleted. All messages, even deleted ones, are available upon request from phone provider. Snapchat and TikTok will provide you with complete logs of who your child has been in contact with, messages, and every video they view. If they’re very young I’d check this without their knowledge. If they’re later teens I’d let them know you could find this all out if you wanted to but give some privacy

Snapchat and TikTok will provide you with complete logs of who your child has been in contact with, messages, and every video they view.

Yup! First your going to ask to see her phone. Then you place that phone in a microwave for 30 seconds. Next, after she’s done screaming, you hand her an old school, no data, flip phone. Warn her that disobedient children get downgraded tech until they’re mature enough to handle fancy tech. When she asks “what about my iPhone!? It’s cooked!” You say “Ohhh that was my phone, that I bought and let you borrow it. I decided to nuke that phone. If you want a new one, I hear ebay has low prices on refurbished models. Good luck.” She wont turn off anything ever again. Btw Im a Dad of 3 kids, 2 decades of coaching sports, I substitute teach at private schools and I’m a religious ed teacher as well. I make it a point to know more about technology than my kids however if you can’t TRUST them to operate the phone or car or whatever you give them then they’re too immature and it’s time to show them what not having said item feels like. I prefer not taking stuff away… thats too easy. I prefer giving them a downgrade which aggravates them more lol. 😎
