Re: blocking tiktok for certain time does not work with tiktok app
@General Sky wont call you the offer is for you to start an online chatusing the chat icon on the forum pages..
However Briadband Shield wont reliably stop apps like TikTok to control these you need to better parental control siftware without getting too technical the shield works at a DNS level which many apps bypass by having IP addresses coded into the app or heldin the cache.
Sky do offer the ability to turn a devices WiFi on or off as part of the WiFi Max add-on but this stops/starts all material. Some third party systems installed on a device can block apps
65inch Sky Glass, 3 Sky Streaming Pucks, Sky Ultrafast + and Sky SR213(white Wifi Max hub) main Wifi from 3 TP-Link Deco M4 units in access point mode
