Ratings and reviews

This app isn't a bad parental controls app, it's just buggy. For some reason, it makes Google chrome glitch out, and it's easy to get past as well. I don't know if Google phones and Kaspersky just don't mix, or what. This app is okay though. It is easily bypassed through simply booting into safe mode by holding all buttons upon startup, and then booting out of it. This will somehow disable the app and make many features unavailable. This only works on some phones as it is already fixed on others

Was good while it worked. However, since my daughter's old TracFone is no longer supported (as in usable at all) on their network, I had to buy a new one. Safe Kids will not stay activated, every time you start the app it has to re-enter all it's settings, it won't block Play Store, can be closed without the passcode, etc. Support has no idea what the problem is, even with debug data.

Works great. One thing which bugs me is that I want the app to be as "in the background" as possible, and to just kick in when needed. But there's this floating icon/button which I can't get rid of. The button doesn't seem to do anything when it gets pressed, but nonetheless it is there on top of everything, in the way. I can turn it off by going into the accessibility menu in settings, but doing that stops the app from working as intended. Very frustrating. Please let me get rid of the button.
