set time limits to specific devices with google home

leolo — Wed, 14 Jun 2023 16:35:07 GMT

i want to set time limits to devices connected to the internet on my nest wifi. it was really easy to manage with the Google wifi app, not the same with google home.

this is NOT using google family accounts. is any device connected to the internet on the wifi, I want to be able to select a device and set a time limit, a schedule, or restrict the use of the internet completely if needed.

You don't need to use family accounts to use this feature, but you do need to create a group. It refers to these as family groups, but in reality it's just a group of devices, which can contain just 1 device if that's what you need. Once the group is created, you'll be able to create schedules for that group.
