Managing child's screen time on a Windows PC

I am a parent who does not own any apple product (and does not want to own). But my child is an apple fan. iPhone is the only thing we have in a family. I need way to control her device without having Apple device myself. Is there a way how to manage screen time on the web?


If not then I will probably not buy any new apple product, since I don't want to use them myself.


Thanks for any answers.

Hi Dobsa,


You can check Screen Time on your child's iPhone by going to Settings > Screen Time. You can also create app limits, choose what apps they are not allowed on, and schedule the phone's 'down time'. I don't believe you can do this on a Windows PC.

Hi VDubGolf,


thanks for the answer. It is good to know that it is possible at least on the device itself. I will certainly try. But it is quite difficult task to get the phone to my hands from my 13 years old :). It would be much handier to do via Web.
