How to keep your family safe online with microsoft family safety?

I found Microsoft Family a few years ago and it has made it much easier to keep an eye on my sibling’s online activity. It gives you powerful tools like screen time limits, web filtering, managing privacy settings, and purchasing & spending limits. For any parent or adult in a family, this is a valuable resource to use. The best part is that it’s already built into your Xbox and Windows 10 devices. You don’t have to download any software to make it work! All you need is a Microsoft Account for yourself and each adult or child that will be part of your Microsoft Family.

Safer web browsing: Turning this on will block inappropriate websites and enables safe search, which will filter out adult content on Bing, and other search engines. This also provides you with the ability to add specific websites to either an Allow or Block list. If a child needs access to a specific website, they can request permission from one of the adults within Microsoft Family. 

Games, Apps, and Media: Making sure a child in your Family can only see age appropriate content is easy with Account Microsoft Family. Just set the child’s age and Microsoft Family does the rest. When a child in your family visits the Windows or Xbox store, they will only see age appropriate content.

Purchase & spending: Let the child in your family spend without any unexpected surprises on your credit card! Add money into the child’s account instead of linking a credit card. You can easily add money to their account anytime. A child can then spend their allowance without overspending. You’ll be able to see the child’s recent purchases. If you prefer, you can also limit downloads to free downloads, or disable downloads all together from the Windows or Xbox One stores.

Screen time limits: Do you want to make sure a child in your family isn’t on their computer at 4am? Specify the time intervals a child is allowed on the PC. In addition, you can give a child a time allowance for their computer. If you want a child to only use their computer for 2 hours each day, Microsoft Family makes this simple. If you have an Xbox One console, you get separate controls to assign screen time on Xbox.
