Unlock the Power of Google Family Link for Parents: Boosting School Success with the ultimate free app for modern parenting

Google Upgrades Its Helpful Family Link Service for Parents

Google’s Family Link is a powerful tool that allows parents to remotely manage their children’s devices, and it’s just gotten even better. The tech giant has just rolled out three significant updates to the service, making it a must-try for parents.

Reduce Distractions on Your Kids’ Phone During School Hours

The first and most significant update is called ‘School time.’ This feature helps reduce distractions on your child’s smartwatch during school hours – and from next week, Google is rolling out support for this on Android phones and tablets as well. With School time, you’ll be able to silence notifications and schedule limited Android phone functionality during your child’s school hours. You can also choose the specific apps that are silenced or restricted, keeping school-specific ones available. Even when your child’s phone or tablet’s functionality is restricted, they’ll still have access to essential features like emergency services.

Set Limits on Your Child’s Phone Use

The second new Family Link feature will be available in the coming months. It’s the ability to restrict who your kids can call and text from their Android phones. You’ll be able to add approved contacts from Family Link to your child’s phone, limiting their interactions to only those contacts.

Simplifying Management with a Redesigned UI

The final change is a significant redesign of the Family Link interface. A new Screen Time tab brings together all your management tools, making it easier to block specific websites or approve app downloads. If you have multiple children, you can now easily switch between their profiles and manage all their devices from a single page, with advanced features tucked away on a separate screen.

Try Family Link Today

If you’re a parent on Android, you owe it to yourself to try Family Link. With its powerful features and user-friendly interface, it’s an invaluable tool in the digital age. The new updates to Family Link are definitely worth checking out – and who knows, your kids might even enjoy it.
