How do I use the daily limits feature?

The Daily Limits feature allows you to set a fixed amount of time that your child can use the device for in a day.

To enable the Daily Limits to feature you need to open the Kidslox app, go to the Time tab, choose Daily Limits and activate the toggle for days of the week you want Daily Limits to be active on.

To change the time limit on any given day, tap on that day on the list. On the next screen tap the ‘Edit’ button and adjust the time.

When Daily Limits are enabled and the app is in Child mode, Kidslox tracks device to use whenever the screen is active. To stop the timer, kids can simply turn off the screen. Please note that on iOS devices the time will be counted only when the device is connected to the internet and you can set only a total daily limit of device use time.

On Android devices, you can set time for individual apps or categories of apps (adjust these times by tapping the category or app you want to limit in the list beneath the total time limit for the day). If you want to remove the limit that you have previously had one an app or app category, you can just choose No limit (time used for the app will be still counted in the total daily limits time and it will be blocked in Lock mode).

The Daily Limits feature can only be used to set limits on the use in Child mode.

Parents can see their child’s remaining time by checking the progress bar on the Home screen of the child’s device.

Children can check their remaining time by checking the progress bar on the Pin screen (visible only when Daily Limits are activated and the device is in Child mode).

Please note that time is also tracked while calling or texting. So you can't use these phone functions outside Daily Limits.
