This is Lenova tab M8 and today I would like to demonstrate that you can bypass parental
0:04
controls on this device. So to start, let me quickly demonstrate that my parental controls are indeed active
0:17
So I will enter the Google category over here. So as you can see the account is linked and if I will open up parental controls, they are indeed
0:30
while working and enrolled. From here, if you would like to remove those
0:34
tap at the manager Google account button, or rather not remove but bypass
0:39
without having to grant any parental authorization for it. Then once at the Google Account Center
0:46
open the data and privacy page, scroll it all the way down
0:49
and go for the delete your Google account option. In here, we will need to enter the password
0:56
to the Google account in order to proceed, so let me quickly do exactly that
0:59
off the screen. Then at the following page, scroll those two boxes, or not scroll, excuse me, check those
1:12
two boxes at the bottom part Tap the delete account button And well from here more or less the parental controls are deactivated Let me quickly demonstrate that to you
1:30
So it might take some time for, well, this fact will be acknowledged by the system
1:36
So let's wait for a minute or so. It takes some time for it to synchronize
1:43
So if I will go to Google Account Management Center, as you can see, this little text
1:53
over here appears, which tells that there is some error or mistake, which practically
2:02
proves that we did everything right, but as I've mentioned, should wait for a little bit for
2:08
this changes to take effect or male. device to sync those changes with itself
2:18
So let's wait. So I've checked at the parent's end, the removal of the Google account was acknowledged
2:30
over there and well the parental side of things got the message I guess but for some reason at the child device
2:45
it hasn't been synchronized or something, which does not make sense at all since we have deleted account
2:53
but it is still displayed right over here. So, you know what
2:59
I'll just go ahead and try to reboot the device and see if that will help
3:08
So it seems like the tablet was successfully restarted. So let's see if we've got any luck with our little issue
3:29
It is still somehow... Okay, so it changed the appearance of the Google account, which means that at least
3:37
some progress is being made, which is great. So as you can see the Google account name disappeared and if I tap at the manager Google account it now shows that there is no Google account on this device So definitely we have some progress over here And well yeah finally As you can see the parental
4:01
controls disappeared. So from here, the only thing that is left to do is to recover the Google
4:07
account, which you can very easily do by logging into, let's say, Google Pay Store with it
4:13
So let me do exactly that. In here you should get the following message
4:36
So let's proceed and follow this message by entering the account password
4:44
And as you can see we can now continue the sign-in, which basically will
4:49
basically identifies that the account was restored and recovered as well as we have earlier
4:57
disabled parental controls so that will be it guys thanks for watching and bye bye
