    Setting screen time limits


    Hello,


    Two questions :


    Can i use any device using my credentials, to set screen time limits on a separate child's device or should i only do so on the actual device itself?


    I want to set a daily 3.5 hour time limit on the child's device. Do i have to specify exactly what time this is for eg. 12 - 3.30pm, or can I create a time slot e.g.. 8am - 3pm so the child can use their allocated time during that window?


    Thanks, all.

    :)
