How to restrict contacts on Google Family Link?

Google Family Link offers features to restrict contacts for calls and texts on a child’s Android device. Parents can create a whitelist of approved contacts, limiting their child’s calls and texts to only those individuals. Children can request to add new contacts, which parents must approve.

Key points regarding this functionality:

• This restriction applies to Google Messages and the dialer apps on Android.
• It does not restrict communication through third-party apps or other messaging platforms.
• The child’s device must be running Android 14 or higher.
• Emergency services remain accessible regardless of these settings.
