    This is a great video. Little sister just became old enough to start trusting with a phone however you just don’t give a young curious child a phone. You have to lead them in the right direction to use it. This was very informative and very helpful. Thank you

    Going to try to talk my sister into using these for my nieces iPhones. One is on Tiktok for 10 hours a day and the other is on Minecraft even longer. Both of them with less than stellar performance in school. Every parent should be aware of these features and put them to use. They’ll hate it for a while but eventually they’ll get used to not being phone zombies.

    Useful video. However, I found that downtime has an option called ignore downtime for today which does not require the password. This means kids can stay on at will. Am I missing something?

    Thanks buddy, you were a bit quick so I had to go back a few times and a few other things you skipped but your video helped me find my way. One thing to mention first is Apps like Life360 have location options. To make it so location can't be turned off you need to first setup the App settings and then turn the option to change that setting off. But your video was very helpful. Cheers.

    Thanks but is this the kids phone or the parents phone? Does the child need her own device under her Apple ID to be controlled by the parent with the settings you show here? What does the child device show when these limitations are in place? Are there visible timers on the child’s device so that they know how much time they have left? Is there a way for the child to learn how to manage their own screen time so that they start learning the idea of time management which would be a great thing to learn early on.

My Son can just simply disable the apps 'Downtime' with 2 clicks. Is there a way to ensure downtime is ACTUALLY DOWNTIME?! TIA

So I tried to change the screentime passcode, but evidently I locked that down by accident too. So the change screentime passcode is missing. Can you help?

      it's cumulated on the day. So if you use 30min of that app in the morning, you still only have 30min left for the whole day and then it'll block access to it because of the time limit. And it will reset the next day at midnight

    Coming from Android, I like the way android does it much better. Ok Android there is an app on the parents phone that you control all this through, and can remotely add more time on limits if needed. The one thing I like better on apple is that you can allow certain apps and contacts in downtime. So even if it is late at night and they are not using their phone they can call us and we can call them.

      Android allows them to call you (and vice versa) in night mode, but I love that you can allow specific apps on Apple. Family Link on Android is super nice though. I wish there was a good combination of the two that wasn't a paid app.
