    Microsoft Family Safety App Annoying

    This rubbish app called Microsoft Family Safety is honestly the most annoying app ever

    I have created multiple email addresses for my child

    The app is constantly telling them that they must use Microsoft Edge. Why on earth do we have to use Edge for

    The app never tells me their location or any other info about their usage of the phones

    A company like Microsoft got this completely wrong

    Yes, I have checked all the app settings and the device settings, they are all set up as instructed by Microsoft

    Really annoying

    Please fix this ASAP Microsoft
