How to set parental controls on an apple device

Setting parental controls on an Apple smartphone can help you manage your child’s device usage and protect them from inappropriate content. Here’s how to do it:

1. Open the “Settings” app on your child’s Apple smartphone.
2. Tap on “Screen Time.”
3. Tap on “Turn On Screen Time.”
4. Tap on “Continue.”
5. Select “This is My Child’s iPhone” and tap “Continue.”
6. Choose a passcode for the Screen Time feature and enter it twice. This passcode will change the parental controls or turn off the feature.
7. Tap on “Content & Privacy Restrictions.”
8. Tap on “Turn on Content & Privacy Restrictions.”
9. Enter the Screen Time passcode that you just created.
10. Tap on “Content Restrictions.”
11. Choose the content you want to block on your child’s device. You can block specific apps, websites, and games or set ratings for movies and TV shows.
12. Tap on “Web Content.”
13. Choose the type of websites that you want to allow or block on your child’s device. You can also limit adult websites or limit access to only approved websites.
14. Tap on “Done.”

You can also set up a separate profile for your child on the device, allowing them to have apps and settings that are separate from your own. To do this, go to “Settings” > “Users & Accounts” > “Add User or Profile” > “Child.”

It’s important to regularly check and update the parental controls on your child’s device to ensure that they are still appropriate for their age and interests. You should also have open and honest conversations with your child about their device usage and the importance of being safe online.
