I’ve got an iPhone and my kid has an Android phone, and I’m trying to set up Family Link so I can approve apps, set screen time, and see location. Will it actually let me manage all that from iOS, or do I need an Android device to make it work properly?
Good news — Google Family Link actually has an iOS app for parents, so you can manage your kid’s Android device from your iPhone without any issues. You’ll get app approvals, screen time limits, and location tracking all from the Family Link app on your end.
Just make sure your kid’s Google account is set up as a supervised account during the Family Link setup on their Android — that part needs to be done on their device first, but it’s pretty straightforward.
