Limit data usage
Folks,
Looking for a way to block data usage at certain times for my kid. We have unlimited data, and he uses it late into the night.
Yes, I know the old fashioned way of taking the phone away would work 😊 , but he stays up later than me and I don't mind that, but I want him in bed by say midnight, and I want to cut off his data usage.
Family Allowances DOES NOT stop data usage as far as I can tell. I already have that turned on.
I may have to go back to limited data since at least that would stop him.
Barring the above, is there a way to turn off his hotspot/tethering? There seems to be a way for T-Mobile to do this centrally since they can control the data limit for it...
¡Gracias de antemano!
Hey, all! We're going through older posts with this feedback and making sure that everyone gets a chance to take a peek at our new family program, FamilyMode, launching today 6/29. You can read our blog about it here and learn more in the Resources list at the bottom: https://support.t-mobile.com/community/community/news-updates/blog/2018/06/27/meet-t-mobile-familymode-the-digital-ally-parents-need -- thank you for sharing your opinions with us!
Up until very recently I was able to toggle between the one plan and no data for one of my lines. Suddenly this is not an option. ¿Qué sucedió?
I don't know if this was mentioned and I know this is solved but other people will read it later, so we also have unlimited data but my daughter puts a lock while she locks my grandson's phone from her phone on certain hours of the day and night. And yes he has the same plan as us who have unlimited everything , so you can just lock the kids phone at certain hours , and you can just do that from your own phone. At least then you don't have to worry about cutting any plans or anything like that just keep your plan and lock the phone at certain hours.
