Hi there, I'm trying to view my children's play activity when they're with their mum. She's the admin and has shared the pincode with me. But I can't link the parental control app with the console.

Can anybody out there help me?

Can I manage the restrictions for my system on two different smart devices?
The restrictions can only be managed by one Nintendo Account. However, you can link the same Nintendo Account to the application on multiple smart devices. Then, you can manage the restrictions through each device that the Nintendo Account is linked to.

So if you and their mum both had access to the same account, you could view it. That doesn't sound right to me, as you would be asking for someone's login details?

@wigglegiggle yeah, you need to sign into the Parental Control App with their mum's login details and the console should already be linked. It's a bit short-sighted by Nintendo that you can't have the parental controls linked to anyone in your Family group that is marked as a parent/guardian.
