Exact time played

Love the app and being able to see how much electronic time my 11 year old has used in a day. Would like to see exact times played 7:00 pm- 8:00 pm. I would be able to tell if he is using it at night. Otherwise, great job! ?
No feature to allow disabling?

This app doesn't let you disable the switch until you enable it again. It also doesn't let you set a custom exact bedtime, only a predefined one. There's really no useful functionality except for time limit. I will reconsider revising this review, but for now, this app is useless.
Pain in the butt

I was signing in to my sons account to set up parental controls but it said it couldn’t be linked to this account and asked me to change the email address. After I changed it it STILL said couldn’t be linked so I made a new account. But it said could not proceed. This is super frustrating!!!
Really? I am so disappointed in this app

Why doesn’t it allow you to set individual user time limits. I seen more that one review (many reviews actually) that are asking for the same capability...I expected more from the Nintendo name. I thought surely they will update the app to handle this customer demand but still no satisfaction in that area.... I’m am so disappointed
Close but not good enough

As others have stated this isn’t effective until you can set separate controls for separate accounts. Setting a daily time limit doesn’t help if there is more than one user on the same switch. Also it needs “time of day” options where you can disable it before a certain time and after a certain time. These seem fairly simple to implement; not sure why they choose not to.
Needs individual controls

I like the way this works mostly. Controls are instantaneous on the Switch and the reports are a nice touch. I’m very disappointed that I cannot set different levels for different users, however. I, as an adult, should be able to hand different user-rights than my children, and they’re age spans are pretty large. I either have to be really restrictive or constantly watch them with a device that is supposed to be portable and free a screen in the home.
