Family Link lets parent set up per-app time limits and add bonus time before bed


Google Family Link allows parents to administer their children's devices, granularly controlling which apps they can install, how much time they can spend on their phones, and when it's time to put their tech down before bed. In an update to the service, Google has introduced new options, now letting parents set up per-app time limits and add bonus time before the nightly shutdown.
Per-app limits might come in handy when parents don't want their kids to play games for hours but would highly encourage them to educate themselves with Duolingo or Google's own Bolo app that helps kids read English, Hindi, and other languages. The bonus time before bed just makes sense, too. Before, parents couldn't easily grant the wish for "five more minutes" – they'd have to manually raise and lower the global setting in that case.
The changes were already previewed back in May during Google I/O when the company announced that it would bake parental controls right into Android 10's Digital Wellbeing. Along with introducing the functionality for everyone, Google now made the integration in the latest version of its OS official. The update is currently rolling out on the Play Store.

EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE PIXEL 4, THE MOST-LEAKED PHONE EVER

Image
Google’s  Pixel 3 might have been the  most-leaked phone in history . Long before its unveiling, we knew practically everything about it from unboxing videos, photo comparisons, even a full review of the device. Surely, for the Pixel 4, Google would clamp down on leaks to leave some surprises for its debut on  October 15th , right? Let’s just say, if that was the plan, it didn’t exactly work out. We’ve now seen the Pixel 4 XL from every angle and in three different colors. At least seven different sources have touched this phone, many of them confirming the same specs. We not only know which cameras it’ll have, but also what they may be capable of, including air gestures (go figure). That doesn’t even count information Google has already shared  on purpose. So if you want to know almost everything about the Pixel 4 nearly a month before it’s announced, buckle up. We’ve sifted through all of the rumors and information we can find to compile everything we know — and everything we
