PC Scientist · Newcastle · Parental controls

Parental controls for Newcastle homes

The school tablet comes home to Newcastle and the rules that worked in class stop at the front door. Your phone on the bus already skipped the house Wi-Fi. You are not looking for another app. You want the house and the devices to agree.

We set family DNS, Screen Time or Family Link, then the console and the TV. Call 0493 563 381, or book a visit around Newcastle and Lake Macquarie.

Parental controls · Newcastle

Does the rule stop when they leave the house Wi-Fi?

A router filter is a start. The phone on the way to school is the test. We set both layers so Newcastle families are not surprised at 4pm.

What we set here

  • Bedtime that still holds on the phone after sport.
  • YouTube on the lounge TV, not only the tablet.
  • Switch or Xbox signed into a family account.
  • School devices included when the profile allows it.
  • Nothing extra starts unless you agree.

Visit order

  • Device list. Router and family DNS. Then Apple, Google, or Microsoft tools.
  • Consoles and TVs. Then the bypass check.
  • Handover: PINs, parent users, review date.

Where we come

Newcastle homes and Lake Macquarie houses. Remote handover when everything can sit on the table.
