WiFi Restrictions for Kids

What should I do if I want to set time limits for all devices on Google Home?

My child keeps logging in as a guest on the school iPad in the middle of the night, which I can't control, and I'm having trouble with that.

Device-specific time controls do not prevent access via guest logins.

Hi @Usco 

The most effective way now is to use the parental control feature / settings on each device.

Thank you for your comment.

Her school-issued iPad doesn't have parental controls, so I wanted to control it from the WiFi side.

But I guess I have no choice but to unplug the WiFi.

Google Wifi / Nest Wifi does have parental control features but unfortunately they are often easily bypassed by something called MAC randomisation which is often enabled by default on modern devices.
