What’s the best way to restrict my Android devices to only use approved apps? I want to manage the whitelist remotely.
Bonus points if I can keep everything in-house, on my home server or similar via my existing VPN.
This is for my kids’ future phones. Ages 12 to 16.
Family Link. You can whitelist apps, get screen time stats, and if your kid needs an app, when they try install it it will ask your approval.

Bit of a pain getting the accounts setup, but otherwise works very well for preventing my grandma filling her tablet with junk.
Oo that looks neat. I’m wondering how I’ve missed it!
