Windows 10: Family safety app notifications Android not working

My app just quite sending me notifications yesterday. When I go into my phone settings to turn on notifications, the toggle button is grayed out and I can't turn it on. I tried reinstalling the app but that didn't change anything.

Family Safety doesn't work on power saver

I tried everything you suggested, but nothing worked. I think the problem is that power saver restricts running Family Safety and other apps from running in the background. I can manually enable an app in the Settings, but there's no such app like Family
Safety in the list.

 

Notifications from family safety to my Android phone

Hi AntonVA -

This is Orlando, an Independent Advisor and an expert with Windows 10. I understand that you want to receive notifications on your android phone coming from the family safety feature on your computer.

As of now we don't have any know application that provides notification for family safety feature that can be installed on your android device.

But alternatively what you can do is install an outlook application on your device and associate your email account on that application so whenever a family member send a request though email, you will still be notified and you can grant it using the application you installed. Once you receive the notification you can just sign in using your Microsoft account and grant the changes requested.

Hope this help, have a good day.

Thanks,
