Choose what your kid can download
If your kid has a Windows Phone 8.1, you can use the My Family website to manage their game
and app downloads and settings. To set up My Family, go to https://
www.windowsphone.com/family, sign in to the Microsoft account with both your and the
kid’s mail address and password, and follow the instructions.
You can add another parent to My Family on the My Family website. Both parents can manage
the kid’s settings, but can’t change each other’s settings.
You can select which game ratings your kid can see and which apps and games the kid can
download. Sign in to your My Family account, and change the settings for your kid. You can
also prevent your kid from downloading any apps or games.
You need to add valid credit card info to prove that you are an adult if your kid is 12 years old
or younger. No charges are made to your credit card, and your credit card number is not
saved. The legal adult age varies by country and region.
This feature is not available in all languages. For more info on feature and service availability,

The availability of apps and games may depend on your kid’s age.
