4 Key Parental Control Options On Xbox One And Playstation 4

Many parents ask us: What apps and games can kids access on gaming consoles? What content can kids be exposed to on web browsers? What can kids purchase there? How can I manage how long my child uses the console each day/week?

Let’s break down these parental control options on the two most popular gaming consoles: Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

Xbox One

Start by creating an Xbox Live account through your Microsoft online at account. microsoft.com. From there, go to account. microsoft.com/family/faq to create accounts for your kids, too. Then sign into the Xbox One to manage the settings for each account.

Access – Sony provides preset limits, determined by age, that you can apply to your child’s account. But you can choose the “Under 13” option even if your child is 15. Microsoft lets you give one-time or ongoing exceptions.
