[Constant notifications: Windows Phone Link]

Phone Link is a windows app that attempts to link your phone to your pc.

My kid has a Pixel running Android 11 and a Dell 3190 laptop running Windows 10. Both devices have KSK installed, and I control the settings for both devices.

My kid and I are getting incessant messages about Phone Link. A message every 20 minutes.

On the laptop, we get:  "Phone Link is in the Unknown Category, which doesn't work on your device."

On my devices, I keep getting: "Kid tried to open the forbidden application Phone Link on the Kid's Laptop device. The application category: Unknown, the age restriction: 0+. Terms and Conditions The application was blocked because it belongs to the forbidden category Unknown."

To solve this problem, I used the Group Policy and the Regedit method to disable the phone linking feature on Windows, followed by reboot.

It doesn't work. We still get the same incessant notifications.

How can I remove or disable Phone Link so that we stop getting constant notifications from KSK?

Thx.

Thanks for the reply.

Before I created this post, I tried Kids > Applications > App Monitoring > Messages = Forbidden > Save.

It did not work. I was still able to send and receive texts on her phone.

Then, the next day, the block began to work correctly after I rebooted her phone.

So: either there was a lag-time before the settings change took effect, or a phone reboot was necessary for it to take effect.

Thanks.

I want the ability to temporarily disable SMS on my child's Android 11 or 12 phone.

If a kid misuses the texting function, I want to be able to turn it off for a while, but still they have a telephone and I have the locator capability.

How to disable SMS?

Thanks.

Example: If Thomi has one child named Sunshine, then create two child accounts: SunshineA and SunshineB. 

Put the phone on SunshineA and block Youtube.

Put the PC on SunshineB and allow Youtube.
