It would be nice if Google made it possible to schedule a label to pause a certain time each day, during homework time, for example. This is a handy feature for keeping your kids, or yourself, focused on homework, work, dinner, or just limiting screen time. To unpause the connection, return to the Settings tab and tap on the label again. With a group of devices placed under a label, you can pause the connection to those devices on demand by opening Settings tab in the app, then tapping on the label name.
Add devices to the label you just created, and save. Select the '+' button in the bottom corner, and follow the prompts to create a label for a group of devices connected to your network. Tap on the Settings tab, followed by Family Wi-Fi. Alternatively, you can tap on the Settings tab followed by Priority device. For example, streaming a new movie on an Apple TV or gaming on an Xbox and don't want any buffering? Set it as a priority device.įrom the usage list you can tap on the priority button in the bottom-right corner, select a device or devices from the list, provide a time allotment for priority status, and save.
By assigning a device priority status, Google Wifi will ensure that the connection to the device has all of the bandwidth it needs.
