Every day we spend more time in front of our computers, tablets and cell phones, either for work, learning virtually or as part of our recreation, as well as looking for ways to keep our loved ones safe.

Microsoft Family Safety will allow you to improve communication with your children about the time they spend in front of devices and the type of content they consume on them.

The application is designed to provide information about online activities, where you spend your time online, and allows you to create flexible schedules to spend more time on things like online learning. As well as, learn about the major searches and websites they frequently visit.

The most interesting part of this application is the series of controls that parents can configure to set limits on searches or online content, as well as to set a time for surfing the Internet.

And even determine the time spent playing games, whether on Windows, Android or Xbox.

The application allows you to set limits to protect children from content that is not suitable for them, as well as filtering content according to the age range they have and setting blocks on web searches on some parameter set. Notifications can also be configured to warn about these actions.

You can stay connected even when you are physically separated, since the application has the function of sharing location, in addition to saving the most visited places, such as home, work or school, to know at a glance where the family members are.

We invite you to join the preview, Microsoft will be collecting feedback and continuing to improve the experience prior to launch in the coming months. Once launched, the application will be available for free download at the application stores.

The limited preview of the application in is available for iOS and Android systems.
