Time of use of one of the functions that came from the hand of iOS 12, a function that allows us limit the use we make of our smartphone and the devices linked to members that are part of Family Sharing, however, it did not consider the possibility of setting limits with some applications.
With the current version of iOS, Airtime offer us allow or block access to applications or communication functions, without offering the option of limiting it to a number of specific contacts, so we can send a message to our children but not prevent their friends from doing the same.
With iOS 13.3, Apple adds new functions in this regard, since it offers us new options to control the time our children spend with the iPhone or iPad and the use they can make of them, including messages and calls. These new limits allow us control with whom our children can communicate, who can communicate with them during the day and during the downtime we have established.
During normal use of the device, the child may have limited communications to the people who are available in the contacts application. During idle time, you can limit the number of people you can have contact with to a pre-established list, blocking the ability to communicate with the rest of the contacts in the phonebook.
These limits we can set them both in the calls, FaceTime and Messages application. If the minor makes a call to an emergency number, a call that is always allowed, all limits are automatically unlocked for the next 24 hours. At times like this, it shows how when Apple wants to do things right, it does.
