At first I thought it was all good and then I noticed it would say inactive and my child would be on her phone I went in to try to change settings won't let me into my account don't recognize my email if I go to forgot password completely can't update add-on I have contacted through email hopefully we can get this straightened out soon. So I can put my stars back. And not cancel my subscription at the bank to stop payment. My child needs to be safe I hear Norton's got a new one.
UPDATE 4/28/22 The "extra" features i pay for often times do not even work. This app is basically just stealing my money at this point. I am in the market for a new app with the same basic premise and will be replacing this one with that. I have been paying for this app for about 1.5 to 2 years now. Mostly works for controlling screentime, blocking apps & knowing how long my kid spends on each app.
This is very nice and more stable than other application I tried. Though they all have the same problem that if uninstalled on the phone it will stop working as my kid does it haha would have loved if I do not need to go premium to use atleast one option which is bedtime. Need to uninstall since my premium is over
You have to pay premium for everything. At first I could set screen time limits - the basic thing this app is intended to do. Now, even that requires a premium account that I have to pay for to use.
It looks promising but fails in every way. The reporting on apps used doesn't work. The geolocation doesn't work. Time used on device doesn't work. If lucky the schedules work and you can pause and play the device but other than that none of it works. Support will walk you thru how to re-install the profile etc to fix these issues but results always end up the same.
My experience with the app has been kind of bittersweet. I like it because I can pause what my child is doing but the VPN stops working so frequently for no reason so I can't trust on it to block the Ipad on time. My son can reach the limit and the app shows he has been playing with it for 10min..which is obviously not true. I've contacted customer support and they're giving me advice. I did everything they told me to do and the problem persist. I paid for the year but not planning to renewing
My son still be able to uninstall the apps without a password. The notification prompt and it allows to manage device admin apps and he can choose to uncheck screen time without a password.
It works great. Kills my battery live. 2phones and 4 tablets.... its a lot and probably to much to maintain. I would still recommend.
I used to love this app, but it's dysfunctional.. My son is currently active on his phone and the app is showing he was active 4 days ago. Google is not blocked as set, this app has many flaws. Canceled my subscription, not worth paying for.
Very often the app stop function on kid's device. Have to redo sync to get control again. The functions are helpful but if not working, it's useless.
Great for android - bit rubbish for apple. Android gains you full control and can see all usage etc. Apple still allows all text messages as well as phone calls when locked so not much use for a teenager. Won't show you individual app usage for apple on your daily usage updates - only android! Suppose its called Crapple for a reason!
Great app for limiting kids time zoned off in YouTube. Plus, prevents them from downloading apps or trying to do things behind their parents backs. Love the incentive factor of them wanting to do extra chores to earn more time. Better than an allowance.
Not worth the purchase. Even with the phone paused my daughter can still go on YouTube. What's the point of having this app if the kids still have access to apps?! Frustrating!
It's not reliable. It works some times , most of the times my kid is playing and doesn't register any activity. Just paid a month. Cancelling. Not recommended.
It will say my son is using splitscreen whens he's not, And it locks him out of all the apps on his phone for 20 to 30 minutes.
Troubleshooting team fast, supportive and efficient. You can quickly reach a real person if a problem arises. The app itself - especially the GPS tracker - is excellent. Easy to use, and offers a great deal of peace of mind.
This app was great for the last year up u til about a month to 2 mo ths ago. Now messages aren't showing for days, it will turn on the bed time mode hours before it's actually set to do so. When unblocking an app it won't actually unblock it for a few minutes. I'm looking into different parental control options because I see thus improving and for what I pay a month it is not worth it.
Please stay away from this app. Worst app ever. I got maybe 3 weeks out of it before it stopped working. Along with them telling me i would need to pay for another 6 months. I reached out to the developers though the email that was given to be just for it to be sent back and was undeliverable. No one can help with anything.
Used to be so good. Now not only the apps don't work. Whatever i've paid for is not being updated. Sometimes i cannot even look through the browsing history through the phone. The locks don't work.
This was so promising at first but it keeps adding an extra hour on to my child's limited time and just auto completed and approved some tasks!
So many technical issues the software is completely unusable and ineffective. After a week of communicating issues with tech support I gave up and canceled my subscription.
