I see that there's a couple of apps that can allow a parent to limit the time a child uses a device, but was wondering if anyone on here has any recommendations? More & more time being spent on it & want to reduce it

^ yup, we do that too. This is for the times when we can't be there and the grandparents are in charge - they're not always the strictest.

Thanks for the input though.
