Review game access for kids broken for months

Hi.

As a parent, I love the granularity of the Stadia Parental Controls, BUT, one of the best things of it has been broken since October.

If you go to https://stadia.google.com/families and click on the Manage Settings button for one of your kids, then click Review Games, you'll find that the page loads a bit, then nothing happens. This happens on Chrome on Desktop, Mobile and with and without the adblocker on. Have asked friends to check their end too with issues as well.

This means, the functionality to, on a game-per-game basis, you can't enable or disable game access to a child. Which I'd say is a pretty basic feature (that, to be honest, most other platforms don't have anyway). 

I hope this gets fixed soon.... And while we're on the topic of parental controls, would be great to be able to limit playtime other than through the app usage in the Android Parental Controls :slightly_smiling_face:

When reviewing games, the child needs to start the game first and it will appear in this list. Another app to get to help with this is the family link app, it makes reviewing games for children a lot easier.

Hope this helps

That's a different thing though. Also a good feature, though I wish I could white list games without the need to launch it.

I'm talking about the list of games the kid owns or have access to through family sharing, that will hide or show games in their library. You can set access to Pegi 7 for example, then hide a few you don't want the kid to see, or put it at Pegi 12 and enable, say, The Crew 2, but no other Pegi 12 game.

 

That list has been broken for 6 months now
