Mobile games are social spaces, not just apps. Parents who set clear rules early reduce conflict and surprise charges.

Agree on schedules

Use visible timers and predictable windows—after homework, before dinner. Consistency beats arbitrary cutoffs mid-match when possible.

Spending controls

Enable store passwords, disable one-tap buying, and review monthly statements. Discuss that cosmetics are optional.

Chat safety

Mute toxic lobbies, report harassment through in-game tools, and teach kids not to share personal information or photos.

Sleep and school

No phones in bedrooms overnight if sleep suffers. Bright screens before bed delay melatonin—wind down 30 minutes before sleep.

When to involve the publisher

For account theft or billing errors, use official support portals—not third-party “recovery” services.
