I see outside blogs and articles on setting up screen time limits on Roku TV, but that's not an option under our parent control settings on our new Roku.  How can we set screen time limits?

@CarterFam,

Thank you for posting in the Roku Community!

We appreciate you contacting us regarding setting a screen time limit for your Roku TV. We understand that managing screen time is essential for a healthy viewing experience, and we're pleased to assist.

Roku TV's parental controls allow you to manage what your kids watch and what content they can access. However, there is no option to limit screen time directly. You must use the sleep timer feature to manage screen time on your Roku TV.

For detailed information about parental controls, please check here: How to block content using parental controls.

Please check this guide for using a sleep timer on your Roku TV.

Thanks again for reaching out. Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. 

Cheers,
Arjiemar

Yeah sleep timer does nothing but turn the TV off. Nothing to stop kids from turning it right back on. Or turning the TV on anytime.
