    App time limits - need to block during the day


    Trying to use the familt safety features to block some apps games during the school day say 730am-230pm and allow other apps. How is this not yet available during all this remote learning? All you need to do is let me add multiple allowable times per app instead of just one continuous block.

    :)

  2. Child Time limits not working

    My child's account is not blocking after time limits or based on time of day, as it is entered into the schedule

    It does log his time, which I can see when I look at his activity tab. His account is also not blocking apps that it is supposed to block. For instance, his activity log shows how many hours he was on Chrome, but then on the "Content Restrictions" tab, it
    shows that Chrome is supposed to be blocked.

    - I have followed the steps on this page: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...ft-account-fix-screen-time-limits-not-working

    - Windows is up to date

    - His account is logged in. And it has been verified.

    - I have searched many other threads, forums, etc.
