    How can a parent limit game time for a child if the child is not signed into their account account. For example, my child can play NHL 2018 without being signed into an account.

  2. Xbox One parental controls question

    Okay so on the 360 it was simple as hell to give my son a time limit. I just turned parental controls on with a pin number lock, and the system automatically paused when the time limit ran out, unless I put in the secret pin to give more time.

    Now on the xbox one, it's tied to his online account which is fine. I give him a one hour per day time limit, and then I put in the pin on my own account if he wants more time. Problem I have found is, he can sign out of his account (not signed in on any account) and continue playing the game even after time has run out. Is there a way to fix this problem? I'm trying to make it to where he can't do anything once his daily time limit runs out.

  3. Xbox One open YouTube with YouTube Phone App -_-

    Not sure how that's possible, if you're signed into your XboxOne (with your account) at the time. You should have control over it, not him - regardless of the youtube app, on his phone.

    Xbox screen time limits not working

    Hello David!

    Thank you for bringing this inquiry to us here on the forums. I understand you are trying to see screen usage limits for your sons child account is that correct? You would have to sign into an adult account responsible for the child account in the family
    and set up the screen time limits from the adult account for the child account. Give it a try and let us know how it goes with a reply.

    Screen time on Xbox One doesn't work on Fifa 19

    Fifa does require you to sign in so you can bypass the screen time limit. It only starts when you actually sign in with that account.

    Here are some troubleshooting resources:


    Hope this helps. Let us know.

    XBOX One time limits not working

    Hi Danno,

    Thanks for coming to the forums. We understand have questions on time limits. If he doesn't sign out or leave the Xbox in stand by mode the time may go over. Also, it doesn't count time played on a different account. As the

    guide for screen time limits
    states:

    Note Once screen time limits are set up, time counts down whenever a child signs in. So, if they’re not actively using their console, have them sign out.

    Hope this helps.

    Brad

    Xbox screen time limits not working

    Hello David,

    Sorry for the issue with the settings. We suggest refreshing the settings for the screen time limit. Change all the screen time limits to default, save it then log out of the website. Sign back in then go and change the screen time limits to where you like
    and see if that helps. Also check on the console he may have another account he signs into when the screen time is up. Since you are getting notifications, etc. it does seem to be working to a degree.

    Thanks,

    Brad
