  1. Family Safety app limits: modify weekdays/weekends


    Hi,



    I am using Microsoft Family Safety to set time limits on how my kids use the computer. However, I would like to modify the pre-defined weekdays Mon-Fri / weekends Sat-Sun when limiting aspecific app. This is because in my country the working week is from Sun-Thu, and the weekend is Friday and Saturday. This is despite that the Screen Timepage in the Family Safety website shows Sunday as correctly being the first day of the week, and having defined it as such across my devices and Outlook calendars.


    Is there a way to change this? It would be preferable to have the same level of control ofscreen time limits when setting app and game limits per day, with multiple time periods.


    Thanks.



    Regards,

    Abdullah

    :)

    Family Safety - Weekdays and Weekends

    In Family Safety, I am able to set limits for individual days 'Screen Time', but 'App and Game Limits' is restricted to 'Weekdays' (Monday to Friday) and 'Weekends' (Saturday and Sunday).

    I want to set 'App and Game Limits' to apply to the nights which are before school....ie Sunday to Thursday, leaving Friday and Saturday as the 'weekend' ...ie nights which are not before school.

    As far as I can see, 'weekdays' definition is locked on Monday to Friday and 'weekend' Saturday and Sunday

    Is there any way to set the 'weekdays' / 'weekends' definition?

    Microsoft family weekends and weekdays change

    Hi there,

    In Microsoft family as a parent, I'm setting different restrictions for weekdays than weekends, unfortunately it shows weekends as Sat-Sun where the weekend in Saudi is Fri-Sat.

    I wasn't able to find a way to change the weekends and weekdays from the default Sat-Sun, any ideas?

    Please note that on the kids computers and my computer calendars all set as weekends to be Sat-Sun, but still in the family.microsoft.com website it still showd on the restrictions control different weekends.
