Kids are gaining access to technology at much younger ages; however, big tech companies like Apple and Google are continually improving their safety precautions for minors, which is excellent news for parents.
Apple has a Family Sharing feature that allows parents to create a family group and add up to 5 family members with Apple devices.
Once your group is created, you can set up parental controls for any children in the group, enabling controls such as Screen Time monitoring and the Ask to Buy feature, which requires parents' permission to buy or download apps.

Once you've created a Family Sharing account and created Child Accounts for your kids, you can enable various Parental Controls on their Apple devices.
Like the iPhone plan, Androids have a family group feature that allows a family manager to add up to five people. The only catch is that the family member must be at least 13 years old to be added to the group. Those 12 and under can only be added if the family manager creates a Google account for them. This can be done while setting up the child's Android device.
