Adjusting Apps, Games Family Settings for a Child. Adjust the age 16 or 17 but...

You're also welcome to contact me directly on Xbox Live, should you like me to talk you through the process any further. Gamer tag is same as displayed here.

Hope you and your teen enjoy their experience!

Hello RxGadget,

I'm glad to see you getting involved in the Xbox universe. Welcome aboard!

There's plenty we can do to give you control over the Xbox One system. To get started, lets talk about the parental control options available to you, and how you can access them.

Xbox One has one of the most vast set of protocols currently available on a home console.

To start, make sure that your child already has a Microsoft account on the console, you can always create one if necessary. Next, we will be adding your child account to a family package. To do this, venture to the home screen on your Xbox One, and make sure
you're signed in as yourself (not your child).

From here, click on My games & apps, then select Settings. Then, under account scroll over to
Family Settings. From here you can select Manage family members and add your child's account to a family.

A Microsoft privacy statement should pop up, click next to continue or privacy statement if you want to learn more information about Microsoft's privacy policies.

Next, you should be able to click the child's account under the family settings page and click set parental controls.

There are three types of content restrictions: Access to content and apps, Web filtering and descriptions in OneGuide.

Under Access to content and apps, you can choose Child Defaults, Teen Defaults, Adult Defaults or Custom.

Clicking Custom will offer much more customisation, you'll have to scroll to the right to see them all. There are too many possible protocols to list here, but you'll be able to control whether your kids can purchase content, use Skype, access social networks
or share their information with friends or random players online. You can also control if they can purchase or view purchasable content, join multiplayer games, add friends, and much more. If you decide they can add friends, you can even set it where you have
to approve them manually.

Web filtering is much simpler: You can select one of six filtering systems, which range from Designed for Children, which only allows kid-friendly sites, to Warned on Adult, which displays warnings on adult content but does not block it.

With these tools at your disposal, you can ensure that each member of your household has an Xbox One experience suited to his or her needs. Even better, unlike PS4 sub-accounts, which stay linked to a parent's account in perpetuity, Xbox One accounts can
be delinked once a child is ready to fly the coop.

Sorry for the slow reply, it took me a while to condense this into a post! I hope this helps!

Oh and is your account an child account? If so then your family settings need to be adjusted

A child account is any account under the age of 18. You can't change an adult account to a child account. You may want to get clarity from him on what he is trying to do. There is no such thing as a family Game Pass. Having someone on a family acocunt just means they can adjust settings for that account.

Hello!!! I can easily provide a few things which may help. More info is needed on items such as the account you want to limit a child account? If it was, you can edit or change things by selecting your family settings. and make some adjustments and changes
there.

On your second question, what screen settings are you trying to change? Just the normal start-up like you had before like screen adjustments like color and background? I hope I helped you at least I answered at least one of your questions.
