  • Good value for the whole family

    I have 8 family members on my account and some are on Android and some are on Apple. And I pay $7.99 a month for the entire family - great value. Besides from the location alerts which tell me when my family members have arrived or departed a location, I can also set time limits for my kids devices and prevent them from going to different websites or apps. In addition I can pause the internet (cellular or wifi) with one click. Would love to have better insights into what my kids are doing on social media so would love to see some new features regarding that area. But overall great value for the entire family.
  • Why not use Screen Time?

    Unless this app is multi-platform (might be, don't know)... I'm not sure why pay $8/month per decide (that's hundreds/year for my family) when it offers less functionality than Apple's "Screen Time" and "Find My" gives families. I've seen some mention Chatting/communications... um... got that with iMessage, Signal, Whatsapp... wait that's far too many already! I must be missing something... but whatever it is I'm guessing isn't worth hundreds per year for a family. PSA: Don't use any app or phone to prevent your kids from committing harmful acts to others or themselves. I'm a bit alarmed at comments thinking that's the purpose.

    The location is not accurate
  • Doesn’t block hotspot as advertised

    We were told the only way to set it up so the internet/hotspot would be blocked each night was to subscribe to this service. It doesn’t work. The hotspot could be accessed during “bedtime.” We tried to get help and were told there were glitches at times, but this was no glitch. It simply doesn’t work. We emailed the support email as directed and no one bothered to respond. If you want this app to block the internet at set times, don’t waste your time or money.
  • Could be good

    This app would be good if there was a way to block child from turning off VPN. Now is is just at best fair. Might be OK for young. Children who do not figure out how to turn off VPN.
  • Doesn’t stop hotspot

    We were told by AT&T that when data was turned off by this app, the hotspot would be as well. That was not true, the hotspot continues to function even when you turn off your kids data. There’s no point of turning off data if they can just use each other’s hotspots to bypass all of it

    I really liked this app when I first installed it, because there are certain things that you can block , and it makes my child’s phone safer. However, the limit of 20 blocks is just not enough! And the domains run constantly, even if nobody is online. Like my child can go to sleep at night and by the time he wakes up in the morning and turns his phone on his entire timeline is domains. We wanna block them. And every time I see something new I need to block, I have to remove something o already have blocked. Please add more blocking spots. It should be unlimited due to so many new sites popping up daily.
