MOBILE DEVICE PARENTAL CONTROL
First Claim
1. A controlling device, comprising:
- a communication interface configured for control communication with one or more associated devices of the controlling device, the one or more associated devices corresponding to one or more members of a group;
an integrated display device configured to display a parental control user interface;
a processing system to implement computer instructions as a parental control service that is configured to;
receive an input of a device control via the parental control user interface, the device control for one or more of the associated devices that are controllable by the controlling device; and
initiate communication of the device control to the one or more associated devices.

Abstract
In implementations of mobile device parental control, a controlling device includes a communication interface for control communication with one or more associated devices of the controlling device, and the associated devices correspond to members of a group. An integrated display device displays a parental control user interface. A parental control service is implemented to receive an input of a device control via the parental control user interface, where the device control is initiated for one or more of the associated devices that are controllable by the controlling device. The parental control service can then initiate communication of the device control to the associated devices that are controlled by the controlling device.

17. A parental control system, comprising:
-
a network service device to execute computer instructions as a parental control service that is configured to; receive a device control from a controlling device when the device control is initiated by a user of the controlling device, the device control initiated for one or more associated devices that correspond to one or more members of a group; determine the one or more associated devices that are controllable by the controlling device based on identifiers of the controlling device and the one or more associated devices; and communicate the device control received from the controlling device to the one or more associated devices. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
