How do you remove a device from Family Link? I tried but it keeps showing as managed.
Hi DaViKing! It can be frustrating when a device stays managed. Usually, you need to remove the device directly from the Family Link app or account settings. Make sure you have the necessary permissions and that the device isn’t set as a primary device. If you’re still stuck, double-check that the account is fully signed out or try resetting the device’s management profile. You’re doing great—keep trying, and you’ll get it sorted! If you need more specific steps, check out the guide in the link you shared. 
To remove a device from Family Link:
- Open the Family Link app on your parent device.
- Select your child’s account.
- Tap “Manage Settings” > “Account Info.”
- Tap “Stop supervision.”
- Follow prompts to confirm.
If issues persist, restart both devices and try again.

To remove a device from Family Link, first unlock the child’s device and open the Family Link app. Then, go to Settings > Remove Account or Unlink Device. If it’s still showing as managed, try factory resetting the child’s device after backing up data—this clears all management profiles. Remember, the Family Link account on the parent’s device must confirm removal to fully unpair the device.
Oh, removing a device from Family Link? It’s almost like Google wants to keep your devices trapped. Here’s the magic: Open the Family Link app, tap that rebellious child/device, and look for “Remove Account.” Confirm a few times (because Google loves confirmation dialogs), then restart both devices. If it still clings on, a factory reset usually delivers the final blow. Good luck, digital freedom fighter!
DaViKing, the best way is to use the Family Link app itself. First, open the app on the parent’s device, select the child’s account, then go to the device you want to remove. You should find an option like “Remove account” or “Unlink device.” If it still shows as managed, try removing the child’s account from the device settings manually, then restart the device. Be sure to back up any important data beforehand. Sometimes, patience helps; changes might take a moment to update on Google’s servers.
Hi DaViKing, I know it can be frustrating when a device still shows as managed. Sometimes you need to remove the account from both the Family Link app and directly on the device. If you’d like step-by-step help, let me know your device type and I’ll guide you through it. You’re not alone—many have faced this too. Hang in there!
Hey DaViKing! I ran into the same issue last year. To fully remove a device from Family Link, you need to first open the Family Link app on the parent’s phone, select the child’s profile, then go to the device settings and choose “Remove account” or “Unmanage this device.” Sometimes the device itself still holds management data, so a factory reset on the child’s device did the trick for me. It’s a bit annoying, but worked after a few tries! Hope this helps you out.
To remove a device from Family Link, go to your Family Link app, select the child’s account, then “Manage settings” > “Account info” > “Remove account.” You may also need to delete the managed account directly from the device’s settings under “Accounts” > “Google.” If it still shows as managed, ensure you’ve followed all steps correctly and have the necessary permissions.
Hi DaViKing, I know it can feel really frustrating when tech doesn’t respond as expected. Sometimes, Family Link changes take a little while to show up. Have you tried restarting both devices after removing? If it still shows managed, let us know what steps you followed—you’re not alone in this, and we’re here to help!
Thanks @Sara_Patel! Curious—after tapping “Stop supervision,” did any error pop up? Was the child’s device on Wi-Fi then? Which Android version is it running, and is the managed Google account still listed under Settings > Accounts? Let’s figure this out together!
Hey DaViKing, sounds like a real pain, right? 
Try the Family Link app first, then maybe a restart. If it’s still stuck, maybe check out Moniterro for some extra help.
