About this app

Use MMGuardian Parental Control on your child's phone to view messages, receive safety alerts and set limits for screen time and app usage.

This is the app is for the parent's phone - you must also install a different app on your child's phone. If you install this app first, you will be guided on how to download the child phone app from the relevant app store for your child's iPhone or Android phone.

Receive alerts when your child's text messages, certain social media chat messages or web searches are indicative of drugs, sexting, cyberbullying, child grooming, violence, suicidal thoughts and more.

What does MMGuardian Do?
With the MMGuardian Parental Control Child app installed to your child's Android phone, you will also be able to monitor and block:
• SMS text messages
• Web browsing activity
• Application usage
• To whom phone calls are made

Social Media Chat Monitoring
In addition to normal SMS texts, chat messages from Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Instagram, Kik, TikTok and Discord are reported. Alerts will be sent to you if the content in a chat message appears to relate to one of nine special categories including sexting, cyberbullying and suicidal thoughts.

The benefits of using MMGuardian Parental Control when your child has an Android phone include:
• Alerting you when text messages or web searches are indicative of sexting, cyberbullying, suicidal thoughts and more.
• Alerting you when pictures on your child's phone, or sent in an MMS message, are of an adult nature or indicative of sexting.
• Comprehensive reports for text messages, app usage, web browsing and voice calls.
Additional Functions
• Locate your child's phone
• Quickly lock or unlock your child's phone
• Set limits for screen time, app usage, web filtering

This app on your phone and the one on your child's phone must be registered using the same (parent's) email address.

Both your phone and your child's phone should have network data capability, as the app uses data to send and receive configuration commands, reports and alerts.

Free 14 day trial
After the free 14 day trial period of the app on the child's phone has ended, unless the child phone app is licensed or has an ongoing subscription, the functions in this Parent App that relate to premium functions on the child's app will be disabled. However you can still use MMGuardian to locate your child's phone remotely.

Subscriptions
You may purchase a subscription to apply to the MMGuardian Parental Control app installed on your child's phone from within this parent phone app. Subscriptions are $4.99/mo or $49.99/year for one child phone. Family plans for up to 5 child devices are twice these amounts.

We encourage parents to discuss the reasons to use a parent control app with their children, which include to help protect them from potential risks of their own actions and the actions of others, such as excessive screen time, cyberbullying and sexting.

Ratings and reviews

I wouldn't bother with this app it doesn't show all messages. It looses most of the convos & doesn't show half of what your child writes. Huge shame I have changed my rating as for nearly a year we have had an issue with this app. It not been corrected. Once my memberships up it will be deleted. But I have told people to stay clear as its not as good as it use to be We have communicated for over a year and you haven't got the issue sorted. Not going to email anymore its a waste of time.

Great app to keep an eye on the kids, one problem is that some sections don't work because it doesn't work on androids version 9.0 or above. Please fix. Also, is there a way to make the app see pics and vids that is sent to and from my kids and their friends so I know if is inappropriate or not and to deal with the matter if needbe. Five stars if fixed as I pay for a subscription.

A decent app, downsides: - usage report is once a day, so you can't see Today. - my 9y/o noticed it, stopped it, uninstall within 24hrs. All settings lost. - the showstopper however is the 50c/week FOREVER to use. Let me buy it for a.reasonable price and I would and I'd give it more stars! Upsides: - remote locking - flexible group based usage quotas - app install notification
