View or extend the remaining time to use the device
A child can view the total amount of time that is allowed to use the device and the amount of time remaining to use the device. Norton Family notifies the child 15 minutes before the restricted time reaches or the end of allowed time usage. It also provides a one-minute countdown when the child reaches the restricted time period or allowed time has been used for the day.
When the child exceeds the allowed time to use the device, Norton Family blocks the child to use the device based on the house rule that you have set. Your child can send you a request for time extension and based on your decision, they can continue using the device till the extended time.
