Hi me and DH are not good with It!

What's the easiest way to manage our teenage DD's screen time now we are heading to year 10.

We want to switch off the internet access for her at 1030 pm and get it back on 6am. We also like might to switch off certain apps during study time. She has 2 apple devices.

Would you recommend a pay for app and if so which one?

Thanks (we all have apple devices).

We were able to cut off the internet via the WiFi settings on our account with our provider. It meant we could disable internet for teens devices but we could still access WiFi on ours. We didn’t just block certain apps though so no clue about that I’m afraid.

If you wet her up as a child account on Apple you can control her devices through yours.

At that age though we just had them hand over their devices for the night.
