Now when your child tries to open it on an Android device, they\u2019ll instead see a screen letting them know that the app has been blocked to keep them safe. If they try to open it on an iOS device, the app\u2019s internet connection will be cut off so they won\u2019t be able to download any new content or interact with anyone online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Set healthy time limits for apps<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There will probably be some apps that you\u2019re happy for your child to use, but want to make sure they don\u2019t spend all day on.
