The right tool for the moment.
With Digital Wellbeing, you get controls and features that work for any moment during the day: relaxing, working or just checking in on how you’re using your phone.
Relax
When you want to unplug.
Bedtime mode
When it’s time to go to bed, Wind Down helps you switch off. Just set a bedtime and it turns your screen to Grayscale and silences your notifications with Do Not Disturb. Which means that you can get a full night’s rest. No buzzing, beeping or endless scrolling to keep you up.
Work profile
With Android, you get two profiles on one phone: work and personal. When you switch to personal, all your work apps stay hidden. Like your calendar, your emails, your notifications. So, when you leave the office at the end of the day, you know you’re not taking work home with you.

Tinting your phone’s screen to a warmer colour helps you ease into the evening. It’s a great way to adjust for bedtime and get better sleep, too.
Focus
When you want to get things done.
Flip to Shhh
On all Pixel 3 and above devices, you can turn on Do Not Disturb more easily than ever. All you have to do is put your device face down and you automatically mute your notifications. If you’re in a meeting or eating dinner, you can silence your phone without even touching the screen.
Focus mode
For getting in the zone and blocking out distractions. Focus mode lets you select apps to pause temporarily. So if you want to turn off a distracting app to get something done, all you have to do is tap.

Balance
When you want to stay on track.
Dashboard
It’s everything Digital Wellbeing in one place. How much time that you spend in your apps. Which ones send you the most notifications. Even how often you unlock your phone. Here’s where you set goals and make sure that you’re on track to hit them.
App timers
In Digital Wellbeing, you can see which apps and websites you use most, and set daily limits. Once you hit the limit, those apps and sites pause and notifications go quiet. So you’ll spend only the time that you want, exactly where you want.
Find balance together with Family Link.
Family Link lets you connect a child's device to your own so that you can set digital ground rules. Create screen time limits. Manage the apps and websites that your child uses. Even lock a child’s device remotely. Start by tapping on Digital Wellbeing and parental controls in Settings. Or download the Family Link app to begin.
Download the appManage their apps.
Not every child's screen time is created equal. You decide whether your child can download apps from the Google Play Store. Manage purchases that they make in apps. And hide the apps on their device that you don’t want them to see.
Set limits.
How much screen time is right for your child? That’s up to you. Family Link lets you set screen time limits and a bedtime for their device. So you can help them find a good balance.
