How to Set Limitations for PUBG Mobile on iPhone/iPad

To stop your kid from being PUBG Mobile addiction, you need to set limitations for PUBG Mobile on your kid's iPhone or iPad. So now the question is, how to set limitations on their iPhone or iPad so that they can't play the game all the time? Luckily, Apple brings build-in tool to help you make it. This tool is called Screen Time, which allows you to view how much time your kid spends on the device and block some certain contents on the device. But you should be noted that your kid's iOS device needs to run iOS 12 and later to use this tool. And here are the detailed steps.

1. Unlock your kid's iPhone or iPad, open Settings > Screen Time.
2. Tap App Limits > Add Limit on the panel.
3. Select Games category, and find PUBG Mobile on the app list.
4. Set time limit on the panel, for example, you can set 2 hours, and tap Add on the upper right corner.

Of course, don't forget to set a password on Screen Time to secure your settings, otherwise your kid can change or delete the limitations on their own. To create a passcode, go to Settings > Screen Time, scroll down to find Use Screen Time Passcode option, and set a screen time passcode, and you need to re-enter it to confirm. You can choose to use your Apple ID to help you recover your passcode in case you forget it, or you can skip this step. The passcode not only secures your screen time settings, but also enables you to allow more time when the limits expires.

With these steps done, your kid can only use PUBG Mobile for 2 hours each day, you can delete the time limit when needed.
