    How to set up Family time limits for kids if you set up their accounts years ago with...


    We setup Xbox accounts for our kids years ago before they even had their own email addresses so we used mine and my wifes. I'd like to use the family option to limit their time daily but their accounts are tied to our emails which are both listed as administrators, I'm lost as to how to fix it?

    :)

    How to set up Family time limits for kids if you set up their accounts years ago with parent emails which are listed as administrators?

    You would have to create new, child accounts for them.

    Game pass and child account

    Did you set up your family account? Go to settings, Account, Family Settings, Manage family Members, Add to Family. it will cost about 1.50 per kid. But it will be able to set time limits and everything and they will be able to game share with you. Which
    brings me to the next Answer, to set up gameshare go to settings, ( if not already there) go to personalization, my home Xbox and make it your home xbox. Hope this helps. I have 4 kids and had to do this for all so they can all play games.

    You can set time limits by creating a child account for the person you are wanting to add these limits to. All you'll need to do is set up a
    Family Account then add your child to that account.

    If you need help with setting up Screen Time, you can find the step by step instructions here; Set up screen
    time limits for your child

    parent account and child account

    Have you tried the xbox family app? We set up an account for our kids with there own email address. The xbox family app works great and can limit things that you do want kids doing
