Need to put parental controls on daughters nexus 7 - help!


Recommended Posts

Hello - my nearly eight year old daughter has her own google nexus 7 tablet. She uses google chrome for research for homework etc but I was shocked, when looking at her history, to see she's accessed inappropriate content (nothing too horrific thankfully) as she's very curious about certain stuff at the moment. Am trying to put a parental lock on her google chrome but can't seem to do it - first off tried to do it via her settings, but won't bring up the 'restricted user' thing that it's supposed to. Have also tried to install two apps which supposedly lock inappropriate content but now when I go into her google it's still letting me access inappropriate sites - help! Thanks so much for any help

Hi emc..


You need to set up a Supervised User.


This is no longer limited to Chrome Beta: the latest stable Chrome release lets you add supervised users. They're just like regular Chrome users, except that they're attached to your Google account and you can block sites and check their browsing activity from a Google page. This could be used as a parental control feature and it's more useful if you have a Chromebook.

    • He/she followed me and my friends quite a long way along the road so we worried they might be out of their catchment area. Quite dusty paws which also made me think perhaps they’d been roaming away from home for a few days. Took photos in case anyone is missing them! Very pretty, friendly long-haired black and white cat, leopard print collar, pink paw-print metal tag. They eventually stopped following us across the road from Mrs Robinson.
    • I took it to mean that he was going to present all sides of the argument (for want of a better term) rather than just giving his own opinion. I didn't take it to mean that he was calling "his own views" balanced.
    • I just did this survey. There are a number of problems with it. For example, in at least two questions you have an option "other, please specify" but there is no way to specify what the "other" is. Also, you have several questions where if you have nothing appropriate to answer, you get a statement "this is a required question", or words to that effect, so you have to put in something like "nothing" in order to move on. Can I suggest that this is likely to confuse people so they just give up half way through? Maybe you should test it out on a few people before going "live" with it?
    • I went to Brockwell Lido on a hot day last summer to do some lengths. It was busy.  I kept getting other people's hair, which was floating around the pool, tangled in my hands. It was gross. I'm not sure if that was unusual, or if it's always like that on a hot day.
