For most of us, our weekend schedule looks very different from our weekday schedule, and the same applies to our kids—even during the summer, right? Setting schedules and routines is an important part of helping our kids learn responsibility, not to mention the benefits of them simply knowing what to expect in their lives.
So why not take advantage of all those benefits when it comes to your child’s Troomi phone? Troomi makes it easy to set call, text, web, and app time limits in the Parent Portal. This way you can set up a consistent schedule for phone use and let your child know what to expect (and maybe even avoid having to tell your child their screen time is over and having them beg for more). Keep reading to learn more about the awesome options you have on the Troomi phone—all managed on your own phone or desktop in the Parent Portal.
Call and text time limits. First things first: you can set overall time limits on when your child is able to use their phone for calling and texting. The Parent Portal allows you to see overall call time and number of texts sent, so you can stay in the loop about your child’s communication habits. No more worries about your child texting a friend till all hours of the night!
Web time limits. If your child is prone to surfing the web when they should be doing homework, you can set a time limit on their web feature! This will help ensure that your kiddo can get their work done with less distraction and still surf the web in their free time.
Individual App and Feature Allotments. The same applies to individual apps and phone features. You can set allotments of time for each app, so your kid doesn’t get carried away with, say, Spotify kids, Angry Birds, or their favorite educational game. When they reach the time limit, they won’t be able to access that app for the rest of the day.
A Phone That Works for You
We’ll just say it: the possibilities are endless, and that’s how we want it to be! The Troomi phone is designed to be a tool for your family, and we’ve designed it to be able to adjust to your family’s needs. So go into the Parent Portal and tinker around a bit! Create the perfect schedule for your child and their needs.
