TL;DR Google’s latest System Services release notes confirm the new Android Family Hub, a dedicated space for family management tools in Android Settings.

In its latest System Services release notes for November 2026, Google says you can now access the Android Family Hub, which it describes as “a dedicated space for family management tools in Android Settings.”
