These days parents give smartphone to their kid’s due to various reasons, like to be keep in touch with kid’s during their absence. But on the same time, many parents are concerned about what types of contents are viewing by their little ones. Google understands your concern, and that’s why the search engine giant has announced the launch of Family Link app.
The all new Family Link app allow you to controls especially for parents to keep contents on their device away from their kids, and also allows way to limit their time on the device. Currently, the app is compatible with the Android Nougat v7.0 or above. Which is little disappointing, but we hope Google will make support for older versions of Android too.
How the app actually works???
After installing the app, parents can set up a Google account for each kid. That’s all, now the Family Link app will allow you to block apps or control device of their kid’s.
The app also allows you to set daily screen time limits for each and every kid’s, you can also monitor how much time your kids spending on the device on a daily or monthly basis. The also allows you to remotely lock your kid’s device, when you don’t want to use the device by the little ones. This feature comes handy during the period of exams or if the kid using the device late in night.
Availability of the app:
Right now the is in its early stages, but Google allows early access to the app. And the app is designed for the parents who have kids with the age of 13 and below, Google is also looking for feedbacks from the users. The company will launch the app officially later this year.
Conclusion
Well we think this is really a great move by Google to help parents to protect their children from the unappropriated contents in their early stage of life. Specially these days we are hearing lots of bad news from kids like abusing etc. So, this is really great app for parents to keep control on their children.

Whats up this is kind of of off topic but I was
wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually
code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I
wanted to get advice from someone with experience.
Any help would be enormously appreciated!

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you
knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for
quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like
this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new

I’m not seeing very good results. If you know of any please share.

Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this blog.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s challenging to get that “perfect balance”
between superb usability and visual appearance.
I must say you’ve done a very good job with this. Additionally, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Firefox.
Superb Blog!

When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a
comment is added I get four emails with the
same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
Thanks a lot!
Yes! Finally something about ig.
Hmm it seems like your website ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum
it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing.
Do you have any tips and hints for newbie blog
writers? I’d genuinely appreciate it.
Neat blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from
somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog stand out.
Please let me know where you got your design. Thanks a lot
