Daily routines bring balance to family life. Whether through sharing meals together, setting aside time for homework, or simply creating moments of calm, they help keep children happy and healthy. We’re excited to announce that Qustodio now makes it even easier to support your family’s schedules with our brand-new feature: Family pause. Read on for the full details.
What is Family pause?
Instead of pausing devices or profiles one by one, with Family pause you can now pause every child’s internet connection simultaneously. Choose from preset pause durations like 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour, or set a custom pause time that suits your family’s needs. Family pause is available in the Shortcuts section of the My family screen in your Qustodio app.
How does it work?
Getting started with Family pause is quick and straightforward. With just one tap, you can pause the internet on all your kids’ devices at the same time, making it easier than ever to manage screen time for the whole family. If some profiles are already paused, Family pause will automatically override those previous pauses and unify the pause duration across all devices, so everything stays in sync.
Once the pause is activated, you can easily adjust the duration, resume internet access on all devices, or undo the pause for specific profiles directly from each child’s dashboard.
Take control of screen time with Family pause
We understand that managing your children’s screen time across several devices and profiles can be tricky. Family pause simplifies this by letting you pause internet access on all devices at once, making it easier to create distraction-free family moments and enforce breaks. Whether it’s mealtime, study time, or bedtime, Family pause empowers you to set healthy digital boundaries for your children.
