Set Up Parental Controls auf Xiaomi
Parental controls on Xiaomi phones live inside the Digital Wellbeing & parental controls module, not as a separate app. That is one reason many parents never find the setup screen: MIUI groups it with screen-time tools instead of listing it under a dedicated Family or Kids category.
The restrictions apply system-wide once activated. They can limit new app installs, block adult content in the browser and app store, and cap daily usage time, all tied to the account created during the wizard.
Where to find the setup wizard
Open Tap on Settings ➔ Tap on Digital Wellbeing & parental controls ➔ Tap on Set up parental controls ➔ Tap on Get started and follow the instructions on screen. MIUI then walks you through creating or linking a child account and choosing which restrictions to apply.
If you only want to limit your own screen time without content filtering, use the Digital Wellbeing dashboard directly instead of the parental controls wizard. That skips the account-linking step entirely and only affects app usage limits, not content.
One side effect worth knowing: once parental controls are active, some system changes and app installs require approval from the linked parent account, even for apps unrelated to content restrictions. Removing the setup later needs the same account credentials, so keep them stored somewhere you will not lose.
