  • Infuriating Garbage

    Microsoft makes it possible to add money to a child’s account. Everytime I try it first forces you to use predefined amounts ($10, $25, etc) and if one transaction goes through (big “if”) the second attempt is guaranteed to lock the account. Then it gives an opaque garbage error message, without telling you the actual problem. It offers a useless support doc. You have to hunt around to find a support number to call. Then bounce at and the phone system. Only to end up with a support person that cannot fix it and instead wants you to add a credit card to the child account as a work around. What is the point of a parent account if you have to put a credit card directly in the child’s hands. Stop making it so hard to spend money. I only go through this three times a year—birthday, thanksgiving, christmas. Same thing everytime. I end up wasting 2–3 hours every time. Microsoft, learn how to make painless customer experiences or get out of customer facing business lines.

    Slow and Clunky. For a software company they sure do make terrible apps.

  • Time extensions not working

    Since the last update, time extensions in the app aren’t updating so I had to remove time restrictions entirely so they the kids could play more over the holiday weekend.

  • Time management

    Ever since the new update my time management feature won’t load so I can’t add time or anything!

  • Nothing works

    Time tracking doesn’t work. Keeps automatically turning off. Also can’t set time limits they automatically turn off as well

    Tried to give kids more screen time. It took 8 attempts and 3 Xbox restarts for it to recognize the fact that I had removed the screen time restrictions. It’s disappointing that something as important as parental controls is this inconsistent. With the resources Microsoft has, I expected a smoother, more dependable experience.

  • Really good effort

    They do really good at everything I wish they could lock down more who can and can’t talk to your kid but it is a huge platform. Their efforts are amazing and I am happy with what they have to offer. This does help manage my 10 year old!

  • App crashes nonstop

    First time needing this app since getting a new phone several months ago, but when I downloaded it, I’m unable to login. It brings me through the welcome “tour” then when the sign-in screen comes up, as soon as I tap on the email box to enable the keyboard the app crashes. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times, turned my phone off and on again. App is just trash 🙄 Microsoft family safety app works fine, but doesn’t have privacy/communication settings for Xbox, that one is just screen time for windows,Xbox, and mobile. Why not just make all the settings in one place 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

  • App is poor

    This app crashes and won’t stay open long enough to even log in!

  • Crashes repeatedly. Can’t even sign in after reinstall.

    Can’t add money. Can’t submit feedback. This must be the “30% of our code is vomited by AI” that MS keeps bleating.
