Your children will get profiles on Google TV soon
Google TV is expanding parental controls on its streaming device with the addition of kids' profiles. Parents and guardians can create individual profiles for the kids in their care using either their name and age or existing Google accounts. Through these new profiles, account holders can add specific apps and customized backgrounds and upload movies purchased on other devices. In the coming weeks, additional avatar options will be available, too.
The guardians can secure regular Google TV accounts with a PIN, so the children can't access more mature content. It will also allow account holders to set daily screen time limits and even bedtimes. It's coming first to the US this month, with a broader international rollout "in the next few months."
