There is no restriction for the morning. Any total time or time of day limits reset automatically at 6:00am with no option to restrict the start time accessibility. For instance, the Switch can be set to turn off at a set time before bed, but as of 6:00am the next day, access is once again granted. This seems like an odd thing to exclude from a parental control app.

Really bare bones controls. You can set hourly limits on a console, and you can set an alarm for bedtime, and you can see a general idea of how much of each game was played each day, but that's it. It's unclear how well these settings work. For example, I set bedtime at 8pm, but when I look at the time played, it has red text saying the game was played past the set time. It doesn't say when the hours happened, so I can't know if she went over by five seconds or somehow kept playing for an hour.

Really my only gripe is that it's hard to do any sort of bonus time for my son. It's super easy to set the weekly schedule for daily play time and bed time. But if he's finished his chores and I want to add some time I have to go in and change that days schedule and then remember to change it back later. Not the end of the world, but it would be nice if there was something like a '30 minute bonus time' button.
