Google is expanding ‘school time’ to phones and tablets


No more distractions.

The company announced on Thursday that it’s expanding its “School time” feature to select Android phones, tablets, and Samsung Galaxy Watches over the next year. The company first rolled out School time on its Fitbit Ace LTE smartwatch in May, and bringing the feature to a wider range of devices should help keep any additional distractions out of the classroom. Along with letting parents prevent their children from accessing certain apps, School time can also limit phone calls and message notifications from certain contacts.
