Looking for more control on your children’s devices?

It’s $100 annually for the full access and more than one child but it has great benefits to help monitor your children’s devices and screen time.
Let’s face it , it’s a losing battle taking away electronics this day and age.

How long have you used it?
Does it give you any control over their devices outside of being able to see what they do?
Do you know how much of the information they gather on your child is shared or sold?

@nonsensiclesnail I’ve used it for two weeks now… the only info you input is the name on your parent app, and you can control screen time, bed time, block apps, see locations, set a panic button, web filtering, set a routine.

I would think the app has as much invasive spying as much as any app.

But it definitely shows me the time spent on different apps or games as well.
@Heavenlywarrior Honestly, it sounds wonderful! I'm just cautious of anything that collects everything you do online. But honestly, if it will help the kid...help me help the kid, it sounds wonderful!

@nonsensiclesnail right, in my situation I can’t be with them every single moment , and the government is spying anyway. So besides praying , teaching them to be aware of the evils of this world , that’s another line of defense and discipline.
@Heavenlywarrior If it would allow me to control his xbox, his computer, his oculus, his phone, his iPod and every other dang device his dad thought was a grand idea.... He is my grandson. He's fabulous! But he has screen time issues, as does his father, but I'm the one who is with him most of the time. His dad says he has google family set up. He can track what he does and who he talks to on the xbox, but this kid is a prolific little stink when it comes to getting away with playing games instead of sleeping.

@nonsensiclesnail I feel you the only ones you can do it on is the phones , iPad, laptops. I tried the oculus it’s not on the store to be downloaded or PlayStation.
