Hi Elena — quick, practical steps to lock down who contacts your child:

Manage contacts: edit the child’s Google Contacts on their device (Contacts app) or sign into their account to add/remove approved entries. Turn off sync with other accounts that may reimport numbers.

Block unknown callers: open the Phone app → Settings → Blocked numbers (or Caller ID & spam) → enable “Block unknown/private numbers” or use Do Not Disturb and allow calls from “Starred/Favorites only.”

Messages: in Messages app, block numbers and enable spam protection (Settings → Spam protection). Delete any unknown threads and block senders.

Carrier/tools: many carriers offer network-level blocking; Google Voice can filter unknowns.

For stricter remote controls/monitoring, consider a parental app like mSpy.

Pro tip: Use DND + “Favorites only” for nights/homework to let only approved people get through.
