    Xbox incorrectly applies screen time restriction


    I have my child set up under my family account. Screen time restrictions used to work. Now I've found that they don't. My son was playing long past the 8 pm restriction time. When I checked tonight, after his restriction, it logged in under his account
    right away. The odd thing is that it displays a banner reading, "Screen time ENDS at 7:00 AM," which is when it is supposed to start. I logged him out, turned off automatic login, restarted the Xbox and still the same thing. Redid the restrictions to double
    check, and no change. What is the glitch?

    :)

    How do I remove 'skip sign in' option on Xbox Series X?

    Family Settings: Xbox provides robust family settings that allow you to manage and customize access for different family members. This includes controlling screen time limits, content restrictions, and privacy settings. To set up and manage Family Settings:

    a. Sign in to your Xbox Series X with the parent or guardian account.

    b. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

    c. Navigate to the extreme right of the guide and select the "Profile & system" tab.

    d. Choose "Settings" and then select "Account."

    e. Under Account settings, select "Family settings."

    f. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up and manage family settings for individual accounts.

    Screen Time Limits: You can set daily or weekly screen time limits for each account to manage and control the amount of time spent on the Xbox Series X. This helps in regulating usage and ensuring a healthy balance. You can customize these limits based on specific days of the week as well.

    Content Restrictions: Xbox allows you to apply age-appropriate content restrictions based on the rating of games, movies, and apps. This ensures that users can only access content that aligns with their age group. You can set restrictions for individual accounts or apply them globally for all accounts in the family.

    Privacy and Online Safety: You can manage privacy settings and online safety features to control communication, multiplayer interactions, and sharing of personal information. Xbox provides various options to customize privacy levels and ensure a safe online experience.

    Xbox game streaming incorrectly saying no screen time

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Tony

    When you said Xbox game streaming, are you referring to cloud gaming or remote play?

    May I know when the issue started and which troubleshooting steps you have done so far to fix this?
    In that way I can advise you different things

    I'll be waiting for your feedback, greetings from another Microsoft user

    Can't play with more than one player....

    Which TV are you attempting to run the Xbox on? is it an HDTV or a Standard TV? Minecraft Xbox 360 requires an HDTV for split screen (2+ players on the same TV). I'm not sure if the same restriction applies to Halo but I know for sure it does with Minecraft.
