  1. How do I add a password to Family Safety and get notified of changes?


    How do parents add a password to the Family Safety application? Parents explicitly need something more than just their login password or phone PIN. Parents also need to be notified if settings have been changed and what those changes were. Family Safety is functionally worthless when all a child needs is 15 seconds unguarded on their parents phone to disable parental controls. Worst of all parents aren’t notified changes have been made!

  2. Family Safety Password Change

    Hi,

    First, you need to make sure you are logged into the computer as the Administrator. If you setup your children's account as an Administrator, you should be able to change their passwords. Then follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + X and select
      Control Panel.
    • Click on Family Safety and select the child account.
    • On the left navigation pane, select
      Change Password
      .
    • Follow the prompted instructions and check if the password is changed.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
