My kid got their iPhone for a birthday gift and I’m getting a bit worried about screen time and what they’re accessing online, I’ve set up some parental controls on the device itself but I’d love to be able to lock it from my own phone when they’re being too irresponsible.
Totally doable — Apple’s built-in Screen Time (under Family Sharing) lets you remotely lock their phone, set downtime schedules, and even approve app downloads right from your iPhone. No third-party app needed, it’s free, and honestly it works pretty well for most parents.
