I’m switching from an iPhone to an Android device, but I’m concerned about losing the parental control features I was using, specifically the time management and app restriction capabilities. I’ve been using these features to monitor my kid’s screen time and I want to know if there’s an equivalent or a workaround on Android. Can anyone suggest a similar solution or alternative?
Apple Screen Time doesn’t cross over to Android, but honestly Google’s built-in Family Link app is a solid equivalent — you get app controls, screen time limits, and location tracking, and it’s free. ![]()
Just set it up through your Google account and link your kid’s device, it’s pretty straightforward and covers most of what you were doing on iOS.
