Family link is an absolutely horrible, restrictive thing I don't even know how to put into words of

Family link is an absolutely horrible, restrictive thing I don't even know how to put into words of how horrible this thing is. It even prevented me from receiving an emergency alert and the emergency alert was a tornado watch by the way and for the full 7 almost 8 hours I didn't know until I checked the weather then i saw that tornado watch. And it also auto locked my phone for "downtime" while I was on a phone call and I couldn't explain to him why the call ended as soon as it turned 10:30pm. Use anything other then this horrible thing if you still can

this account is supervised

this account is supervised, yes... and it's a bad experience, imagine you're 12 and you LOVE tech, this is the biggest issue, parents know how their kids use devices, we CANNOT be the same, this issue happens to me, for 10 to 12 year olds, this parenting system is pretty much "too" restrictive. if you're like me, please buy a new phone yourself, let is be a budget, let it work😭. get an account that's actually YOURS, I don't want to have my parents' account with my Profile Picture slapped on it

Useless app

Useless app. Used to work well but they have totally destroyed it. Despite locking my kid's phone, they can still access. Bonus time is 8 hours and when I remove the Bonus time, it jumps back up to 8 hours again. What on earth have you done?Shame I cant give zero stars!!

Not working, weak and easily exploitable

First install: I had to reset my device because it made my phone unusableBecause this blocks me from using AdBlockers, thanks to Family Link I get shown lots of not apropriative ads that i do not want to see. This app never really worked, is uneccersarilly complicated and weird. Also there are many workarrounds and this just makes it harder for the kids AND parents.AND also this app invades privacy COMPLETELY. This is unreasonable and no one should have to go through having this app.

Used to be simple to use

Used to be simple to use. Looks like someone's been tasked with improving it and made it way more complicated to find and use features

No way to delete/unsubscribe easily

It blocks all kinds of things that don't need to be blocked and if you want to get it off of the kid's phone, forget it, it's basically impossible.
