Apples and oranges. For all its faults (and there are lots), Microsoft doesn't require you to own a Microsoft phone or tablet in order to set up an XBox's parental controls. You can do it from a website with any device you want - including the Linux machines I use almost exclusively for computing.

    Can you give me an example of where Apple requires you to have one of their devices to set up a different device? As far as I am aware this isn’t the case, and I believe that is actually illegal in the us.

    You have to have a Mac or iOS device configured with a parent's account to set up shared apps and parental controls on iPads for kids. That's because there is no web interface to configure them.

    That seems insane to me. Obviously using a parent account makes sense. I wonder if it’s just insanely difficult to find? I know I can change family settings on the website, but have no idea about parental controls. It seems like it’d be illegal to require a second device to set up the first device, no?
