What is Nintendo Switch Parental Cont…?
The Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app functions as a dashboard for parents who wish to monitor and control their children’s time on the Nintendo Switch.
Free to download and use and rated for users of all ages, the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app does not feature any in-app purchases or advertisements.
With Nintendo Switch’s Parental Controls app, parents can monitor their children’s play time in a variety of ways, allowing for more or less independence on the child’s part.
A dashboard is also available within the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app, allowing parents to view their child’s summary of console activity at a glance. Parents are able to view summary by user allowing for multiple children in the household.
Within individual user summaries, parents can look at the number of days the Nintendo Switch was played within a given month as well as the amount of time spent playing the console. Parents can opt to have monthly play summaries sent to them via push notifications which can be used to monitor gameplay on an ongoing basis.
Monthly summaries also show which games are being played on the Nintendo Switch console, by user, as well as highlighting any favorites. Monthly summaries can be shared with the shared button which is great for communication within co-parenting families.
Is Nintendo Switch Parental Cont… safe for my kids?
An app with children's best interests and parents in mind, Nintendo Switch Parental Controls allows parents to play a bigger role in their children's gaming lives.
The Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app allows parents to make adjustments from any mobile device with just a simple tap of the finger. Nintendo Switch Parental Controls has three main features which allow parents to:
- Monitor Nintendo Switch play time
- Check up on Nintendo Switch console gameplay
- Restrict console features for safety
Parents can opt to set a time limit for gameplay and the console will notify the user when their play time limit is reached. From there, parents can monitor whether or not their child has followed the time limit or continued to play through the time limit.
Another option provided by Nintendo Switch Parental Controls is the ability to set the console to automatically suspend gameplay when a time limit is reached which is especially great for younger children and those having difficulty playing on the honor system.
The last feature of the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app is the ability for parents to make adjustments to console features for their child’s safety. Within the parental controls, parents can set a restriction that will prevent the Nintendo Switch console from playing games above a certain age rating.
Perhaps the best feature of all for a child, is the ability to disable all alarms and notifications for a day, allowing a child to play for longer than their usual allotted time, a perfect for rewards or birthdays.
This app is built with your child's healthy gameplay in mind and is safe for kids.
