Preparing mobile phone (iPhone) for children - Part 5

Now the time-out menu appears. There you leave the hack on "Daily". Select the following time: "from 00:00 clock" and set "until 23:59 clock". At the time-out block. Then press the blue arrow "Back" at the top left.
We recommend this limitation for kindergarten children as a pre-set. For primary school children we would change the times. Regardless of the time off, the child can call the smartphone as soon as it has a working SIM card. This can be important so that the child can also call (or with a message - this has to be unlocked, see below).

Now you go back to the menu and click on "Communication Limits".
There you can choose, especially for primary school children, that the communication "During the screen time" "Only for contacts" applies.

Then the children can make calls, write messages and use Face-Time during and outside the screen time (if you have shared the latter two apps during the time-out, see below), but only with contacts. Our recommendation is that you manage the contacts of your child. For this, the indicator must be "green".

Back to the menu and click on "Restrictions" and turn on the restrictions. To do this, move the display slider to "green".

It appears "Buy in iTunes & App Store" as the first point. Press it. Then click "Always required". Then click on the blue arrow "back" at the top left.

Then click on "Allowed Apps". Then you will see a selection and only the camera should be activated (see picture). Then click on the blue arrow "back" at the top left.

Then click on "Content restrictions". We recommend age ratings for Germany. Music etc. "unobtrusive", we turn off the music profiles. Films and TV shows "we don't allow", books are "unobtrusive". We allow apps from the age "4+".

In the case of web content, we use "only allowed websites" and all other specifications "we do not allow" (see picture).
Attention: For primary school children it goes a bit deeper here, as you may allow the Internet browser (for kindergarten children it doesn't matter, because we don't recommend to share the Internet browser). If you click on "only allowed websites", then you see which websites are allowed. You should customize them for your primary school child. We don't think the specified selection is suitable. We plan to recommend this in the coming months. If you need this, then write us this in the comment or in the feedback.
Then click the blue arrow "back" at the top left.

Now you are back in the menu. There is the next item "Share Location". This is a point to discuss. On the one hand, Apple has the data about your child's whereabouts. On the other hand, you also have the information where your child's mobile phone is located or where your child is. We recommend activating "Share Location", but you can understand if you don't want to. Then press the blue arrow "back" at the top left.

We would not allow the "code changes" and we would not allow all other options (see picture). Then press the blue arrow "back" at the top left.

In the menu is the next item "Always allow".... Click this and then the first item "Contacts" will appear.

For primary school children, press "specific contacts" then "from my contacts" and there you can select who your child can communicate with. Select your telephone numbers, possibly those of grandparents, close relatives and, if necessary, close friends.

Next appears the button Phone and below Messages, FaceTime and cards. Here you press the minus characters and delete the messages, FaceTime and cards. A red button with deletion opens on the right. Click on it and delete it.

Then you have to confirm the deletion the first time again. Below these apps appear again, so you can add them again at a later time. Finally, click on the blue arrow "back" at the top left.
