Microsoft

The Microsoft account you use to sign in to Windows can be the basis for a family group that also allows you to manage your children. This works on Windows, Android, and Xbox, and to a lesser extent on iOS (again, Apple doesn’t allow other apps to access mobile monitoring software).

In this case, there is a bit of a mix of old and new equipment. A good place to start is the Microsoft Family Safety website. From there you will be able to name your family members (families can have up to six people, including yourself), and access the Microsoft Family Safety program online, Androidand iOS.

All of your family’s regular activities can be accessed through online and mobile apps. Choose one of your kids and you can see where they are on a map (based on the location of their Android device), see how much time they’re spending on their devices, and set limits on screen time, apps, and the internet. opportunity.

As with Google and Apple, children 13 and older can have their own Microsoft accounts, and you can create accounts for younger children. Programs and games on Windows and Xbox can be filtered by age, while Internet and search limits can be set through the Microsoft Edge browser. Apps can be blocked on Windows, Xbox, or Android.
