As a parent, I’ve always been cautious about the technology my kids use. Recently, my young son discovered how to stream videos on our Echo Show 8, which has led to some late-night viewing sessions that I’d rather avoid. While I understand the benefits of having such a device in the house, I’m struggling with finding the right balance between convenience and control.
After spending considerable time exploring the Alexa app and parental control settings, I’m still not entirely sure how to restrict video streaming effectively. I’ve heard about password protection and time limits, but I’m not sure how to implement them on the Echo Show. Is there a way to completely remove the Amazon Prime app from the device, or are there third-party solutions that can help?
I’d love to hear from other parents who’ve faced similar challenges. How do you manage screen time and content access on smart devices? Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated! Let’s work together to find a solution that keeps our kids safe while still allowing them to enjoy the benefits of technology.
