family settings

Household restriction options

Family settings are the controls on devices, apps, or platforms that let parents manage what children can access.

These typically include content filters, screen time limits, purchase restrictions, and activity monitoring.

The term appears in product menus and tech support: You can block that app in family settings.

Also called parental controls.
