Helping more families set digital ground rules with Family Link

Αποτέλεσμα εικόνας για Helping more families set digital ground rules with Family Link
Parents constantly tell us that they want their kids to experience the best 
of what tech has to offer–while also developing a healthy relationship with technology.
Giving parents the tools they need to make the choices that are right for 
their families is critical, and we take our role here very seriously. 
Last year we launched the Family Link app to help parents stay in the loop 
while their kids 
are using Android devices. Family Link helps parents keep an eye on screen time, manage the apps their kids can use, and more. Over the coming days, we’ll make Family Link available to more families, on more devices, and in nearly every country in the world.
Family Link can now help parents with teens manage technology
Family Link originally launched for kids under-13, but we’ve heard overwhelmingly from parents that the app is still useful as their kids enter 
their teen years. This week, parents around the world will be able to 
use Family Link to supervise their teen’s existing Google Account for the 
first time (see applicable age for a teen in your county). 
There are some differences when supervising a teen’s account 
with Family Link. 
For example, teens are free to turn off supervision if they choose to, 
but we let parents know. Ultimately, it’s up to each individual family to 
have a conversation and decide what’s right for them.
Better Chromebook support for kids and teens
The need for supervision doesn’t end with mobile devices. 
Now, Family Link is available for Chromebook for kids and teens, allowing parents to manage website restrictions and account settings for their 
child from their device. Soon, parents will also be able to set screen 
time limits and manage the apps their child can use on Chromebooks.
Continuing to grow together
With more parents in more places able to use Family Link, we want to hear 
your thoughts on how we’re doing. If you want to share your ideas with us, 
just open the Family Link app, click the menu in the top left corner and tap “Help and feedback.”
