This is Samsung Galaxy S23+, and today I'm going to demonstrate that you can bypass parental controls on this device
0:12
To begin with, I have to note the fact that in order for this method to work, you have to know the password to the child's Google account
0:18
otherwise, unfortunately, you will have to look for another way. So, now let me quickly launch Settings and show you guys that my parental controls are indeed on
0:31
Here they are. From here, enter the Google category of settings, tap at the Manage Your Google Account button
0:38
Then, once the Google Account Management Center gets loaded, go for the Data and Privacy page
0:46
At the very bottom of it, go for the Delete Your Google Account option
0:50
Do not be afraid, right after we will disable the parental controls, we will also restore, or recover, rather, the Google account
0:58
So, in here, in order to proceed, enter the password to the child's Google account
1:08
At the following page, check those two boxes. At the bottom, wait for the page to load
1:16
I guess I'm using it bugged or something. Let me just redo something
1:29
So, enter the child's password
1:39
And there you go, it's ready. This time the page finally loaded
1:43
Check those two boxes and tap at the Delete Account button to your bottom right
1:48
From here, you can get two types of messages. Either this one that explicitly says that our Google account deletion process was a success
1:57
or you can also get the Something Went Wrong message. Both are completely fine
2:03
So, now I'm going to quickly demonstrate to you that my parental controls were disabled
2:11
and are no longer active at this point in time. As you can see, no account linked, and parental controls are turned off
2:19
Now, all that is left to do is to restore, or recover, our Google account
2:23
which you can simply do by using it to log into the Google Play Store app
2:27
So, in here I will quickly enter my email address. Then, you'll get this message that says that this account was recently deleted and may be recoverable
2:40
That identifies that we are on the right track. After that, just enter the password real quick
2:56
In most scenarios, you'll get the Something Went Wrong message, which is completely fine. Do not be afraid
3:01
At this point in time, the Google account is successfully restored, or recovered
3:06
But let me just sign into the Google Play Store with it to confirm
3:10
So, I will enter the email address one more time. Then, password
3:18
As you can see, Google successfully identifies this account, which just proves my words that I said earlier that the account is recovered
3:31
So, in here proceed with the usual Google login as you would regularly do
3:40
And here we have it. Our Google account was recovered, parental controls disabled
3:45
So, great success. Thanks for watching and bye-bye
