How it works
This line of smartphones have a large focus on their camera capabilities and give users access to the functions and features expected from a smartphone, such as internet connectivity, a touch-screen interface and front and rear cameras for capturing videos and photographs. Some models are also water resistant and dust proof. A wide range of popular apps can also be accessed via the Google Play Store. Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology is providing new models with improved tools for tasks like editing photos.
Parental controls or safety settings available
Sony Xperia smartphones do have parental controls available and these can be accessed through the Google Family Link app. This gives parents the ability to:
• Set daily time limits
• Restrict their child’s access to specific apps, websites or features
• View the location of their child’s device
A user can manage screentime and prevent apps accessing location, contacts list or functions such as the camera through the Permission Manager and Digital Wellbeing settings.
