With devices on hand at every moment and home Wi-Fi ensuring we never miss a second of connectivity, it can sometimes be hard for families to carve out time to spend together. Whether it’s to have dinner, go for a walk, or play a board game, creating space from digital distractions helps us to connect and enjoy quality time with our families.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why we\u2019re excited to announce Family pause<\/strong> – a new feature that makes it easy for Qustodio families to savor screen-free moments in their busy schedules.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Instead of pausing devices or profiles one by one, with Family pause you can now pause every child\u2019s internet connection simultaneously.<\/strong> Choose from preset pause durations like 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour, or set a custom pause time that suits your family\u2019s needs. Family pause is available in the Shortcuts<\/strong> section of the My family screen<\/strong> in your Parents App.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.qustodio.com\/public-site\/uploads\/2025\/08\/29140737\/2025-08-Blog-IntroducingFamilyPause_InsideImage.png” alt=”Father and daughter bonding” title_text=”2025-08 %91Blog%93 IntroducingFamilyPause_InsideImage” admin_label=”Image” _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Getting started with Family pause is quick and straightforward.
