   FULL STORY   
      
   Sony has launched the PlayStation Family App, a new mobile app that allows   
   parents to monitor their children's PS4 and PS5 usage.    
      
   Now available for iOS and Android devices, the parental control mobile app   
   includes the current parental control features available on the PS5 and PS4,   
   like playtime settings and age restriction settings for games.    
      
   It will also help parents manage their childrens playtime by offering them an   
   activity report, allowing them to see what games their children are playing,   
   and approve extra playtime requests.    
      
   "Were excited to bring an easy way for parents to manage their childrens   
   gaming directly from their mobile devices," said SIEs VP of product   
   management, Cory Gasaway, in a PlayStation Blog post.    
      
   "This is just the beginning with our new mobile app  well plan to continue   
   adding enhancements to PlayStation Family app to evolve the experience over   
   time. We hope youll enjoy it, and we look forward to your feedback."    
      
   The app will also feature real-time notifications that alert parents when   
   their child is playing, restrict certain games, and customize privacy   
   settings.    
      
   Playtime limits for each day of the week can also be managed from the app, as   
   well as spending activity by adding funds, viewing balances, and setting a   
   monthly spending limit for a child to buy content from the PlayStation Store.
