Over 100,000 families already trust our technology to keep pornography out of their digital experience.

Canopy protects families from online pornography by stopping exposure before it happens. Whenever your child surfs the web or uses their favorite apps, Canopy’s advanced artificial intelligence system works seamlessly in the background to inspect the images, videos, and websites they encounter. When it detects pornography, Canopy intercepts and removes it before your child ever sees it. And that’s only the beginning.

Here’s how Canopy can help you protect your family:

✓ Sexting Prevention
Monitors the camera on your child’s device, prevents them from sharing inappropriate photos, and notifies you immediately if a risky photo is detected

✓ Removal Alerts
Receive quick, helpful notifications if your child tries to remove or disable Canopy

✓ Website Management
Create a customized list of blocked or allowed websites to personalize your child’s online experience

✓ Screen Time Management
Set DownTime for the protected device to limit internet use at specific times. .
✓ Location Awareness

Ratings and reviews

The app is a mixed bag of beans for sure; I haven't been able to access my Gmail or other wifi based apps correctly since connecting this device... I think it's a small price to pay-- I'm spending way less time on my phone as a result of the restrictions we've put on. It can be kind of like having an app that turns your phone into a flip phone, while still having limited smart phone functions (maps, books, etc) which is why I still enjoy having it on my devices.

it keeps changing my settings around, and it's constantly on, sucking my already terrible battery life, my phone is constantly hot now, is this app mining bitcoin or something? if you're unfortunate enough to be stuck with this app by your parents, you can get around it by turning on maximum battery saving mode, and only enabling certain apps, like youtube, or discord.

I can't even hardly leave the review without having stuff popping up and clicking me off the screen to a screen that says displays over apps. even when I'm trying to make a call I cant. I want this out of my phone but it won't let me. it's saying can't delete it now without locking my whole device
