Limit your own screentime

PlanetHades361 · May 16, 2020

I am an adult. Is there a way so that i can either track or even limit my own playtime, like i can do with child accounts?

No. Limits are only available on child accounts.

Thank you for pointing me to Google for an answer I already have. I already use Family Group and have set screentime limits, but the basis of my inquiry is to find a way to limit non-school activities during school time but not allow school time to decrement from screentime allotments for play time.

Its perfectly acceptable for children to have their own email account.

This in turn can be used to create their own xbox account which you can control from your either your xbox or your microsoft account family page.

I have 5 and 11 year old girls and they both have their own email and xbox accounts.

Its not that big a deal really, plus you can get handy weekly notifications on their screentime and usage and also restrict their age limit for web browsing etc.

Do it!! Its not that bad!

good luck!
