Jamf Parent allows you to choose which apps your child can use on their school-issued device. You can allow and restrict apps on your child's device by tapping the child device you want to restrict, and then tapping or clicking the Restrictions tab. You can either restrict apps by categories, such as social media or games, or specific apps, such as Safari. To restrict apps by category, use the toggles under Allowed App Categories to allow or restrict certain app categories.

To restrict specific apps, tap Restrict Device Functionality use the toggle next to each app to allow or restrict certain apps.

You can use App Lock to set a timer for app restrictions. While your child's device is in App Lock, they will only be able to use the apps you allow during the specified time period. If you only allow one app, that app launches on your child's device and they cannot exit the app until the App Lock timer expires.

When using the Jamf Parent mobile device app, you can enable App Lock by doing the following:

1. From the dashboard, tap the child device you want to restrict.

2. Tap the Restrictions tab.

3. Tap Enable App Lock, and then set the timer and tap the apps you want your child to have access to.
