My son installs random games after school. How do you block or require approval for new apps and keep limits consistent?
Hey android_rules_dad, I totally relate! My older son, Steven, used to do the same after school. With Android, setting up parental controls through Google Family Link is a great start—it lets you approve app downloads and set daily limits. For even more control (and insight), mSpy is a tool I’ve relied on for years. It lets you block specific apps, set usage rules, and get alerts if new apps are installed. Whatever you choose, just remember to explain why you’re setting these limits—it helped my kids understand I’m looking out for their safety, not just restricting them.
