How to Set App and Game Limits for Microsoft Family Child on Windows 10, Xbox One, and Android

A family group helps families stay connected and keeps kids safer on Windows 10, Xbox One devices, and Android devices running Microsoft Launcher. It’s free, and it’s one of the many benefits of having a Microsoft account. With the settings on family.microsoft.com, you can get reports on a child’s activity, set screen time limits, check on a child’s location, limit which websites and games they can access, and require your approval to purchase from the Microsoft Store.

Once you set up your family group, you can add or remove child and adult members.

App limits are available on Windows 10 and Xbox One devices, along with Android devices with Microsoft Launcher installed.
