Team Udayavani, May 15, 2020, 5:16 PM IST

Microsoft is rolling out an app called Family Safety to measure kids’ screen time and app usage

The app is primarily designed for parents to manage their kids’ screen time and app usage. The app essentially allows users to monitor their family’s digital safety and track screen time across Android, Windows PCs, and Xbox.

There are also features such as location sharing and notifications that can be useful to track the location of family members and receive alerts when they reach school or work.

Parents can view screen time, top websites visited, and terms kids are searching for online and can set limits on specific apps or games.

The app is available now in preview form on both Android and iOS
