Monitor child's Xbox One usage

PwrChrd · Aug 22, 2016

Greetings,

I would like to monitor my child's xbox one usage. I see various posts that say this is not possible, or is possible by monitoring their "rewards" (Not sure what that is in this context), or that I am a lousy parent for wanting to monitor my child's activity,
that is my prerogative and no explanation should be necessary.

Can I determine how much time they are spending on the console or not? If not, why not?

How do I see my child's reputation score on the Xbox live account online??? Is there a way to monitor his behavior???

Cheaters, bad images, and words, foul language

Please mind the time stamp....... Besides, Parents should monitor children's usage. Online content is not rated by the ESRB GOOD LUCK!!!

There currently is not a method of doing that available on the xbox one. That functionality just hasn't been included but there is a lot of interest in having it included. Here is one of the threads requesting a similar thing. xbox.uservoice.com/.../14804169-xbox-one-needs-to-have-parental-control-on-time-li

You can search for others on that site or add your own suggestion. Good Luck!

Per the Terms of Usage agreement for Xbox LIVE any child under the age of 13 must be monitored by a legal guardian at all times. Any persons under the age of majority in a given country is also flagged as a child and needs to be set up under an adult's
account. There are more than enough security measures in place. Watch your children--as you contractually agreed to when you joined Xbox LIVE--and don't use the console as a baby sitter. No more security is needed.

The usage between 7:00 - 8:00 PM doesn't seem to be accurate.

With the Xbox One and all of its constraints, it would be impossible to consume that amount of data in just an hour.

Does your ISP provide any tools for monitoring your overall data usage on a weekly- or monthly basis?

Hi OCD Boy.

Thank you for reaching out to the forum. I would recommend that you look into setting up a Child account for your child, so you can monitor usage and prevent purchases without your consent. You can get more information here:
