    Setting screen time limits for myself


    Hi. I am the administrator on our family account. I can easily set screen time limits on my kids’ accounts (specifically for xbox time). But i cant figure out how to add it for myself too.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    :)

    Screen time limits are only available for child accounts.

    Can I set screen time on myself?

    Only child accounts can have a screentime set. Adult accounts dont have that option as you have seen. Nothing is transferrable between accounts either unfortunately.

    I would create a child account for your child to prevent against unwanted charges, setting communications rules, changes to your adult account and other safety concerns for children playing online. I've read so many stories of kids charging in game purchases
    to parents accounts draining their income and kids getting bullied online by strangers. You might start with this helpful Xbox Support page on Family and Online Safety.
