A limited preview of the Microsoft Family Safety app is launching for iOS and Android. The app is meant to help parents find a digital balance, giving their kids digital independence while still setting boundaries, Microsoft said in a release.
The Family Safety app can help start conversations about internet safety and screen time limits. In addition, the app offers content controls and activity reporting — like top websites visited and terms searched, and location sharing. Microsoft said it plans to add safety driving features in the coming months as well.
