The app has good parental features but is lacking as a messaging app. The app supports text, single images, and group chats. It lacks Message Deletion, Video Sharing, Attachment Downloading, Text Copying, Image Insertion, and Link Clicking. All of which are important for both a clean messaging app and for teaching kids how to use a mature messaging platform. Overall, the app is good for a starter despite its lack of features. Especially at the price of Free.

Like the app, like the control, but I don't receive the notifications most of the time. I've tried playing with the settings in app, and for my phone, but I rarely get them as the messages are sent. My kids don't always get them when I send them. Unreliable, which is a shame. Otherwise a great app.

Hi Lou, thank you for your feedback! Can you please take a look at our FAQ about notifications: https://fennec.me/FAQ/push-notifications.html If this can not solve the issue you have, it seems that your phones' network connections are not very stable. Please contact support@fennec.me for more info. Thank you!

Completely useless. Under the new version you cannot bind a child's tablet to this. You can only bind it to a fennec branded watch. The original version I downloaded I was able to install on my phone and connect to my daughter's tablet. This no longer works. EDIT: I figured out how to use it but WITHOUT their help because there is no support link or support site. STILL NOT IMPRESSED
