What users are saying

1. The UI is decent but I have to restart my son's phone for any changes to take effect, though, to be fair it is hard to find an app like this that does work well because they typically start off with a pathetic 3 day trial period that doesn't allow you to really see that it works.

2. This app has worked pretty well, however it consistently has trouble locating my child's device when other apps such as find my phone can locate it in seconds.

3. Overall the setup was easy and simple, and good way to monitor the device.This app has been so useful for monitoring my teens apps and phone usage.

4. They still have difficulty with self-control with phone use, so this helps them with time management and helps give me peave of mind as a parent that they aren't on their phones during school, or at night.

5. It worked well for a couple of months, then the daily reports and monitoring (shows how much time spent on what apps) stopped working.

6. No indication of whether the issue is actually being addressed or just ignored.Half the time it doesn't work.

7. I hope a feature could be added to set a time limit on specific apps or app groups, rather than just "time limit or no time limit".

8. Additionally my child is unable to remove the notification that constantly displays how much game time is left.

9. Also, I am unable to add time to my child's usage on an as needed basis either via the app or in the website.

10. Hence, somewhere on the line between parent's and child's phone a lot of information is lost.

11. Would be handy to have different time limits for different apps but you can set particular apps to be time limited or not quickly and easily.
