Settings > Digital wellbeing and parental controls
You can monitor and manage your digital habits by getting a daily
view of your digital usage on the Dashboard. You can also set
your device to supervise your children’s digital life.
Your goals
•
Screen time:
Tap the time value in the dashboard to see how
long each app has been opened and used that day.
•
App timers:
Set a daily limit for how long you use each app.
When the limit is reached, the app is paused for the rest of the
day.
Ways to disconnect
•
Focus mode:
Focus on the task at hand by temporarily
pausing apps so you will have minimal interruptions from your
device. You can select the apps that you want to exclude from
this schedule.
•
Bedtime mode:
Once enabled, the screen converts to
greyscale and all notification sounds will be muted. This feature
helps you disconnect from your device and avoid interruptions
during a scheduled period of time.

•
Parental controls:
Supervise your children’s digital life with
Google’s Family Link app available in the Play Store. You can
add restrictions to Google services, set app approvals, set
content filters, keep an eye on screen time, and set screen
time limits for your children’s digital usage.
