Google Family Link is great for Android devices, how are you all managing your families devices?

I’m one of those mixed devices users, a rare breed these days. But recently I decided to stop using two phones and had to make the decision to eSIM my work line to my S24 Ultra or iPhone 15 pro. I choose to only use my iPhone 15 Pro and sell my S24 Ultra.

Anyway my daughter has a Fitbit Ace LTE, a Tab S9, and my youngest kiddo has an iPad and my oldest has an iPad. On the Android side of the house it’s super easy with Family Link to manage devices including Fitbit devices, on iOS/iPadOS it’s much harder since I need to physically set up parental controls on the iPad itself which seems like it can easily be bypassed as my children age. Which I don’t want.

Long story short, what are you all doing to manage your kiddos devices? And when I need to introduce an iPhone to the mix what are you all doing then? I’m thinking of subscribing to an MDM of some sort like NinjaOne that can do all my devices from Windows, Linux, macOS to iPad, Android and iPhones.

Anyway thanks for the info.
