Can someone help me understand the detailed consequences of transferring an existing adult account to a child?
When I bought a secondhand Quest 2 for my 12 year old at Christmas, I unthinkingly set it up with an account with my own details. I'd like a better way of regulating his time on the quest and supervising what he's up to, but it seems this isn't possible on an adult account - you can't for example see how much time has been spent on the machine per day.
Meta seem to allow you to give the account to a newly created (10-12) child account, which comes with parental controls. Great. But it's not clear exactly what happens with the existing data, and what limits are irrevocable after the transfer. Currently he has some 12 and 15 rated games on there which we've looked at together and I've approved. So I have two main questions:
- Does existing game progress and data transfer to the new child account, or is it wiped so he'll be starting from scratch?
- After the transfer, can I subsequently allow access to the already paid-for, higher rated (e.g. 15) games even though they'll be blocked by default once he's on a child account?
