Hi Chat,
Wondering if there's a way to automate my child's phone in terms of wifi and data usage?
Currently I'm logging onto the app to manually turn off wifi and then mobile data which is 5-10 minutes of navigating a hopelessly unintuitive UI and praying that it doesn't simply crash half way through, or ask me to "Log back in later".
Is there a way to simply have a rule set up that disables wifi and data on my son's phone between 10pm and 7am?
Thanks,
G

EE as a network operator, doesn't offer the functionality you seek.
Depending which OS your child's phone runs, it may offer it. Android for example, offers Family Link - this gives complete OS-level control including device locking on a schedule or when a pre-set timer has run out.
