Does Google Family Link work on Chromebook?

Yes, Google Family Link works on Chromebooks. Family Link supervision can be enabled on Chromebooks running Chrome OS version 71 or higher.

• With Family Link on a Chromebook, parents can:
• Stay informed when their child signs in with their own account.
• Manage the child’s Chromebook and account settings.
• Set restrictions on websites accessed through the Chrome browser.
• Control app usage and set daily screen time limits and device bedtimes.
• Approve or decline app downloads and in-app purchases from the Google Play Store.
• Access and manage their child’s account and data settings, including helping to change or reset passwords, edit personal information, or delete the account.
• Prevent children from adding another profile to their account or device without permission.
• Allow children to access Google Assistant through a controlled account, which provides a personalized experience and blocks transactions.
• Enable SafeSearch to filter explicit results on Google Search, which is on by default for supervised users under 13.

However, a known limitation mentioned in user discussions is that Family Link might not prevent a child from logging into Guest mode, which bypasses parental controls unless Guest browsing is explicitly disabled by the Chromebook owner account. Also, installing or using Linux on a Chromebook with a Family Link managed account is generally not allowed, as it could bypass Chrome OS restrictions.
