Have you ever felt that you and your family spend way too much time staring at devices? Well, Google wants to help you take a break.
Google is reportedly rolling out a new feature for itsWi-Fi mesh systemcalled "Scheduled Pause." This new feature lets users block out time to turn off the internet connection to select devices, helping families focus on other activities, like finishing homework, winding down before bed or enjoying real-life face time during dinner. To use this feature, all you have to do is head into the Google Wi-Fi app and select which devices you want to disconnect. Then, name the block of time (such as "Bedtime" or "Homework") and select the hours and days you want the pause schedule to take effect.
虽然这是一个笨人le idea, this could help users indulge in taking breaks from binge watching marathons and browsing social media. This could also help in bringingmore interactions between people around the house.Sure its a small step, but it is in the right direction.
