This is OnePlus 11 and today we'd like to demonstrate that you can bypass parental controls on this device
0:09
So, to begin with, let me quickly demonstrate that my parental controls are indeed active
0:14
As you can clearly see, they are. So, from here, enter the Google category of settings, that's the one that I'm at currently
0:23
Then, tap the Manage Your Google Account button. And, actually, prior to proceeding over here, I have to note one important fact
0:32
that in order for the method that will be shown today to work for you
0:36
you have to know the password to the child's Google account. Otherwise, unfortunately, you will have to look for another way
0:43
So, once at the Google Account Management Center, open the Data & Privacy section
0:48
and tap at the Delete Your Google Account option. Don't be afraid, we will recover the Google account right after the parental controls will be deactivated
0:57
So, no worries regarding this matter. So, in here, you've got to enter the password to the child's Google account
1:04
Then, click Next. Then, at the following page, check those two boxes at the bottom
1:11
and tap at the Delete Account button once again. Well, at this point, we should be clear
1:22
We should be in clear and the Google account was successfully deleted
1:27
It might take some time for the system to register this, so you might want to wait a little bit
1:34
I would assume that, in my case, since there is no Google account linked, there should be no parental controls
1:40
Yep, I am absolutely correct. So, the parental controls were disabled successfully
1:46
Now, all that is left to do on my end is to restore the Google account that we have just erased
1:51
So, it is also a very simple and quick thing to do. Just use it to log into any other Google service
1:57
So, for example, I will log into the Play Store with it
2:02
So, first and foremost, I will have to obviously enter the email address once it lets me to
2:13
Just checking some info. It takes way too long, so I will reload to Google Play
2:23
Alrighty, so now I can finally enter my email address. And if you did everything right up until this point, you should get the
2:31
this account was recently deleted and may be recoverable message. So, proceed as usual
2:37
Then enter your Google account password. And 9 out of 10 times after you hit the next button, you will get the something went wrong message
2:50
In my case, it didn't happen, fortunately, but even if you do get the message or do get the something went wrong error
2:59
do not be afraid to just restart the login procedure and re-enter both your email address and password
3:07
And it usually always works the second time around. So, as I've already mentioned, in my case, that isn't true and it let me through the first time
3:17
which is, well, a great luck, if you ask me. Well, here I have it. The Google account was successfully recovered
3:24
The parental controls were disabled. So, well, that would be it. Thanks for watching and bye-bye
