Parental control is a useful feature that allows you to limit your child’s use of the gadget, ban certain applications, and so on. We tell you how to set it up on an iPhone.
Apple has provided such a function at the OS level itself, although in the App Store you can also find separate offers for monitoring your child’s actions. But now we are interested in setting up parental control in iOS.
- Open the settings and click on your AppleID;
- Go to “Family Access” and enter your child’s name;
- After this, additional items will appear in the settings.
Tunes and AppStore purchases
Here you can set a password for installing and deleting applications, as well as making purchases in the store and the applications themselves.
Allowed applications and functions
Setting a password to access certain software installed on the phone, as well as to the functions of the smartphone.
Content in stores, online, Siri and Game Center
Activate if you are afraid that your child will start googling 18+ content.
It is also worth remembering that some popular applications have special children’s versions with parental control already built in and activated. For example, YouTube Kids.
Setting up parental controls via third-party applications
As noted earlier, there are a number of parental control programs. Most of them are paid, but this is due to their extensive functionality. You can read about them in this article .
