Xbox Family Settings for Positive User Reviews
✓ 1 app for all accounts! 🫶I love the fact that I can keep an eye on all family members and I can change screen time, age restriction, etc. in just one app and I can do that for my other kids as it’s all in one place, absolutely love it I think it’s fantastic!.Version: 2023.05.2
✓ Needs some changesI can’t figure out how to give my kid time on fortnight because I already set it to something. I figured out how to give my child money but I can’t take away money..Version: 2023.08.3
✓ Great for restrictingCan enter time slots and restrict the amount of time they can play in 1 day or just add time when needed much better than going the internet to do this it’s like Apple screen time.Version: 1.9
✓ Love that I can have a bit of control.Why is it though that when I set a time range in the from time, the scroll time says 0630am to 2230pm but the time set actually says says, 0800am to 1200am? A little odd and hard to work with..Version: 2022.11.2
✓ Ha ha ha pause screen timeLove the fact I can pause their screen time, also nice how I can see how long they have played today and for the last 7 days. No more he’s played longer than me from the delightful bundles of joy 🤣😂🤣 Don’t even have to take the consoles away any more if there on a ban, can even pause them from work if I want when I know they should be doing home work 😈😈.Version: 1.4
✓ Perfect!Great App for a gamer Dad, we need time to play as well!.Version: 1.7
✓ Good but could be betterIt work fine and all but like all xbox apps it could be better. The allocated time for My child doesnt update so there no way to know from the app how much time he has been using of his allocated time..Version: 1.3
✓ Improvement over older app butI mostly use the app for screen time settings, sim finding adding more time for family members doesn’t work on the console, I have to update the allowed time to play then change it back the next day..Version: 2023.05.2
✓ ExcellentFonctionne très bien permet de gérer l’autorisation des jeux ou app qu’on veut pour les enfants!!!! Permet d instaurer une plage horaire pour chaque jours !! Les enfants peuvent faire des demandes, de temps supplémentaires ou d’accès à des jeux, qu’on reçoit sur l’app . Permet de gérer les amis et les façons de communiquer!!!! Super je n’ai même plus à gérer le temps de Xbox avec les enfants le Xbox le fait seul 😇.Version: 1.3
✓ Almost BrilliantThis app makes control of family screen time super-easy... except when you have added extra time and then want to edit that... I’ve not found a way to do that, you have to wait for it to lapse and then make changes. Developer Team... fix this and it’s a five star rating. Thanks!.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Suspend / Pause buttonI know it may not be popular but I need an effective way to get my kids attention without physically standing between them and the TV. Please add a “pause” button for us parents! Great app.Version: 1.1
✓ One of The Best Product Turn AroundsThe parental controls where abysmal about 2 years ago. But since then, it has become the most useful tool for the over tasked parent. Managing 3 kids is tough enough without needing to monitor how much screen time kids have. This tool puts that burden to rest..Version: 20220204.220204.1
✓ Gaps in allowing timeThe app has been great as far as parental controls,however there have been multiple occasions where I tried to add screen time for my child and it never updated to his account. I had to unlock more time from the Xbox itself..Version: 2022.11.2
✓ I control my brotherHahahahahahaaaaa.Version: 1.8
✓ Broken no longerUPDATED - This appears to be fixed. ORIGINAL - Doesn’t allow adding a child account. Crashes every time. Unusable as it doesn’t support the entire reason to have the app in the first place. Probably has to do with the newest iOS update, but don’t they test their app in advance?.Version: 2023.08.31
✓ Great appAll features are good and user friendly, would give us the option to update the app wise timelimits from within the app too....Version: 1.2.1
✓ Easier to useMakes it a lot easier to control kids settings....would be nice to be able to add or remove family members from it though..Version: 1.0
✓ Not GreatIn theory, it’s a great app. My son just got into playing things like Madden and FIFA on my XSX. He has had a Switch for a couple years and the parental settings app on that is flawless and responsive with updating time added and time limited. How is Nintendo beating Microsoft at software? The Xbox Family app constantly flubs how much time he has been playing - not cutting him off when it should or conversely, not allowing him time when it should. It is infuriating..Version: 2022.11
✓ I like it, but it could be betterThis app is great. I can schedule a time for my kid to be on everyday and not have to worry about him being on all day. I can add time when I want, but if I accidentally give too much extra time, there is no way to adjust it. I lose the ability to pause his time or block it. If I could do that, I could give five stars..Version: 2022.11.2
✓ Controls that limit playing time and promotes good behaviourConscious of the amount of time my son spends on his Xbox has always been a concern. This app not only helps me set time restrictions, but also helps me to rewards good behaviour with allowing you the option to give extra screen time. There is even a facility to block playing time altogether! From a simple touch of a button on your phone via this application you are more in control..Version: 1.3
✓ Good app, best yetSimple and easy to manage the kids, set limits and block when necessary. All the core stuff I need to be able to do is there and appears to work seamlessly..Version: 1.1
✓ Works as promised - Great for familiesDon’t let the reviews from upset kids whining they’re locked out sway you. This app works and is easy to use. You can adjust when a family member can play, what they can play and even with who. The interface is very easy to follow and find your way around. I do like that I can set different times per day. This lets me have more family time on weekends booked in advance as they know the xBox is not available..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Great family controlsThis time control settings are nailed on. I have all consoles and this is clearly the best implementation. Controls screen time and content. Also actually keeps kids from seeing GTA ads when they are 5 (unlike PlayStation) Nintendo for being a kids console actually has rubbish time management controls. This app is the leader.Version: 20220204.220204.1
✓ I wish i could create specific schedules per app per day and mre readWish i could create specific schedules and times per app per day, also per website otherwise i will give 5 starts.Version: 2022.11.2
✓ Almost 5 star experienceIf you are mistakenly logged into your account instead of your child’s and you apply a gift card, there is nothing that support personnel will do to help you retrieve it..Version: 2023.05.2
✓ Family friendlyOverall it does what it’s meant to. Easy UI..Version: 1.7
✓ Good but please make adjustments to screen timeI would like to have the ability to manage one screen time in addition to having individual screen time for multiple family members.Version: 2023.05.2
✓ Good app but with a glitchSo, this app is amazing but here’s the thing. when I try to add a child on my family it says that the invitation didn’t sent, which is obviously weird so that’s why I rate this app 4 stars but it’s still a good app anyway..Version: 2023.08.3
✓ Thank you thank you thank you from a stressed out mum of 5 gamer boysThis app is what I’ve been praying for for! There were so many issues with keeping track of the x boxes on the Microsoft family safety app. I have 5 x boxes in the house and trying to manage them all was utter torture. This new app solves all those issues! The privacy setting are now easy to find! ( The hours I’ve spent) and I absolutely love that you can pause screen time, give extra time without having to log in each time and there is also the option to take back extra time. The timer is also a great addition. The only thing I’d like to add that would make gamer parenting better is to have the option to manage accounts on the x box remote. It’s taken me hours to figure the settings out to lock down the parent and guest account so they can’t just skip sign in and ultimately bypass screen time. This app has seriously made my life sooo much easier though im not even kidding. Great job guys!.Version: 2024.1.30
✓ Love this AppThis App is amazing!! It helps me protect my child from social anxiety and let’s me limit what they can have access too plus I don’t have to worry about my money declining because of unauthorized gaming charges. Very grateful for this app 😊.Version: 2023.12.14
✓ In controlGreat app to allow me to control access to and time on the Xbox to keep my son safe while he games..Version: 2022.11.2
✓ Microsoft Family AppThe Microsoft Family App is great it does need some tweaking, Especially when adding money into a child’s account. I always get a error page after the transactions goes throw..Version: 2023.08.31
✓ Working well so farMy daughter has recently started gaming and we use this to help monitor her times on screen time. It’s nice having the option to add more time but it would be nice to still have the pause option when you do this. For some reason, if you add more time, the pause button disappears. Apart from that, seems to be working well..Version: 1.9
✓ Perfectly implemented.I play games with my son often and this lets me control exactly what he can and can’t play on the fly all from my phone. If he ever wants to play something he doesn’t already have permission to play I can just allow it from a notification sent directly to my phone from the Xbox it’s great..Version: 20220204.220204.1
✓ AlrightI put a time limit on it but when I tried to take it off, it would not allow me even when I tried changing the settings, it would not save not matter what I did. If there’s something i’m doing wrong please tell me! Otherwise, it’s really great I’ve been watching over my little kiddie for awhile..Version: 1.5
✓ ReassuringOutstanding functions, quick responses. Great for feeling reassured the kids have boundaries..Version: 20220204.220204.1
✓ Redundant?Is there any point to this app if we already have “Microsoft Family” app? They seem to do the exact same thing..Version: 2023.05.2
✓ Great tool to Regulate children’s time on Xbox15 min increments. -Needs a cancel / stop time function..Version: 1.9
✓ Highly recommended for familiesI highly recommend this app for families, it a great way to monitor your children’s screen time, how long and at what time of the day/night. You have the ability to approve or decline friend requests, purchases etc. you can add money to their account to buy things like V-Bucks etc. It’s a great way to monitor your children to ensure their having a good and safe gaming experience. I use it daily.Version: 2022.11.2
✓ YeetYeet yeet if it could.Version: 1.7
✓ Great app for managing screen timeThis app has made great improvements. It can manage time across Xbox and Microsoft devices. Child access settings are now all included in the app in one place. It’s easy to add or stop time without adjusting overall settings. You can now check balance, add money and see purchases in the app. The multiple time blocks option is great, and this format is much easier to use than the website..Version: 1.8
✓ Works Like It Should!Growing up as a kid I played games a lot (My wife and I still do as well as with our son)…but I also got out and played with friends physically IRL and did other activities that taught me life skills. Nowadays you almost have to force kids outside and lock the door. All in all the app does what it was designed to do and helps limit these digital needle users. Just need to add the app limiter to the family app itself so you don’t have to go online to edit times for individual apps. Then this will be the perfect digital methadone!.Version: 1.5
✓ The BestOf all of the platforms that we use in our home - iOS, Switch, PlayStation and Xbox, it’s Microsoft who wins my vote for best parental control experience, hands down. I especially like the ability to quickly respond to the push notifications when my kids ask for more time. It’s all very well thought out. We’ll done 👏.Version: 1.9
