Screen time limits limit the amount of time children can spend using Windows, Xbox devices, and Android smartphones. However, these limits don’t work on iOS and parents will need to use Apple’s built-in Screen Time features for iPhone and iPad.
Content controls allow parents to create web and search filters to block adult content and limit browsing to child-friendly websites when using Microsoft Edge.
Location-sharing features allow parents to see their children’s location, as well as identify the locations they visit most like home, work and school.
Microsoft allows a limited number of iOS users to enroll in Microsoft Family Sharing and is ideal for those who also use Microsoft devices. To participate, iOS users will need to make sure they set up a family group on the Microsoft family website and then register.
