Sound settings

Silent in class, sound back on after

Change your child's phone sound mode from your phone, or set it to switch automatically when they enter or leave a safe zone.

Quiet during class — it goes silent when they walk into school.

Choose sound, vibrate or silent

It applies to your child's phone right away and confirms once it's done.

Switches automatically by safe zone

Set school as a safe zone — silent on the way in, sound on the way out — and you don't have to think about it every day.

On your child's phone

Your child knows exactly what you can change

When you first link, your child reviews and agrees to this permission.

  • Parents can only change the sound mode. They can't see or change other settings.

  • Silent mode needs notification access to be allowed on your child's phone.

Good to know: Switching to silent needs notification access allowed on your child's phone. If the phone is off or offline, the change won't apply, and your phone tells you why.
