When you have set the time limit what exactly happens on reaching the time limit? Will the device be turn off?

Hi Gregory,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

On reaching the time limit set in the policy, the user would be logged out automatically if the device is in use.

A prompt appears in the device reminding the user that the account would be logged out within the specified time limit.

The Admin can override the policy to change the time limits while logging in to the device. Any existing or new Time Limit policy comes into effect only after the time extension provided by the admin is up.
