Important:
- Your devices and apps must be up to date and each child must be a member of the home for Digital Wellbeing and Parental controls to work correctly.
- This feature is only available in some countries and languages.
Digital Wellbeing provides tools to help you manage the usage of your Google smart speakers and displays. You can set limits on screen time, pause devices, or schedule quiet periods directly from the Google Home app.
Apply a more specific restriction for your child with Parental controls. You can set specific filters to block or limit content your child can access. Learn how to set up Parental controls.
Restrict content on your speakers and displays
Filters can help you place limits on how people in your household use your smart speaker or display. Use Filters to block access to music with explicit lyrics, or define which video services are enabled. Learn how to set up filters.
