Where Family Link hits its limits
- Bypassable: for every software guard there's a tutorial — and kids are excellent researchers.
- Remote control not agreement: parents push buttons from afar; the child experiences arbitrariness, not rules.
- One-way street: Family Link only controls the child. "But you're always on your phones too" goes unanswered.
The Zenbox approach for families
One box for all devices — iPhone and Android. You set rules together: homework windows, feed limits, night quiet. Unlock only at the box in the kitchen — visible to all, even when mom or dad get weak. Surveillance becomes a family rule you can touch.
In depth: screen time for kids — why visible rules beat secret control.

FAQ
Does Zenbox fully replace Family Link?
For daily screen time control: yes, with a different principle — agreement not remote control. Age ratings for app purchases still go through each store.
Does it work on my kids' devices?
iPhone from iOS 16.2 and Android (Pixel and Samsung; more coming) — mixed family setups are fine.
What does it cost compared?
€49.99 once for the whole family — instead of subscription control apps per child per month.
