Choose what your kid can download
If your kid’s phone is running Windows Phone 8.1 or Windows 10 Mobile, you can use the My
Family website to manage game and app downloads and settings. To set up My Family, go
to account.microsoft.com/family, sign in to your Microsoft account, and add your kid’s
account to My Family by sending an invitation to their email address. When your kid has
accepted the invitation, you can change the settings for your kid’s account.
You can add another parent to My Family on the My Family website. Both parents can manage
the child’s settings, but can’t change one another’s settings.
You can select which game ratings your child can see and which apps and games the kid can
download. Sign in to your My Family account, and change the settings for your child. You can
also prevent your kid from downloading any apps or games.
You may need to add valid credit card information to prove that you are an adult if your kid
is 12 years old or younger. No charges are made to your credit card, and your credit card
number is not saved. The legal adult age varies by country and region.
For more My Family settings, go to account.microsoft.com/family.
