Key features:
- Restrict and allow apps in real time (including games and social media)
- Restrict and allow device features (including the camera)
- See the device's last known location
- Create scheduled app restrictions for homework time, bedtime, and timeout

Ratings and reviews

bad review: I made sure to not allow ig after school hours on the browser but it didn't work at all.

dreadful from a parent control aspect on android! can't just quick block device. the rules are not intuitive. it often just doesn't work, and my son can download apps without permission. if schools are recommending this over bark and other apps they need to push for it to work A LOT BETTER. useless 😞😞😞

** UPDATED 2022-05-06: This application needs a FIND DEVICE feature. My son lost his tablet and now can't find it in the house. Most probably he hid it. FEATURE REQUEST: in Parent, I should be able to trigger FULL VOLUME ALERT for the device even if the device was set to vibrate/mute so I can locate the device. Being a Parent, we would like to know where the devices are when we are trying to find it. Add this feature in to make it easier for us to find. Bumped up to 3 star as eventually the rules are ok but still not the greatest. **Original comment: Rules are backwards so ensure you test everything. Problem I have is with the device rules and allowed apps timer. If you set safari with device rules to block then if you goto allowed apps to grant 30 minutes for this app, it does not grant it. It is superceded by the device rules. This needs to be fixed badly.... I now have to manually need to remove app from device rules then manually put it back in. Just bad automation here. Allowed apps should ignore device rules completely for App.
