ThePrivacyDad: > This would be ideal, but as with the iPhone solution, there is a serious question about affordability. A Pixel 7 currently has 2 more years of support. A refurbished Pixel 7 may be in range for average families, depending on how many kids they have. A Pixel 8 has 4 more years of support, but even a refurbished Pixel 8 will be unaffordable for many families with normal incomes.

I cant speak for the whole world but I think they are affordable with an average european income and especially with an average US income M-A9NPV: > It would be amazing if GOS would develop and implement some Screen Time-like controls to compete with iOS in that regard.
