In this day and age, when you can’t really take your kid’s phone away from them for long periods of time, I’ve effectively turned to these settings as an alternative. I’ve only had to do it once, but I set up a PIN, reset their phone wiping all the games and social media crap off of it, and then turned off all extra features – no safari, no camera, no installing apps. They can make phone calls, but no Facebook or Twitter, and they have to text friends the old fashioned way like animals. Note: This works on iPad, iPhone and iPod touch also.
