7 Things your Device Restriction Software Should Offer

The digital age we are living requires parents to stay on top of what our children consume on the internet. Thinking you have applications or website restrictions under control on your child’s devices can be deceiving.

Parenting in the modern age is almost ever-changing.

As parents, we are exposed to so much information as well, with apps, email, and social media all at our fingertips, we are constantly distracted by the mobile world, ourselves. Modern software should help you be prepared to keep your child safe and restrict them from viewing inappropriate content. As a parent, you should have the ability to:

1. Have Full Control of the Device: Review, approve, disable, and remove apps installed on the device.

2. Access Internet Filters: Blacklist or approve specific websites or application inside tablets or mobile devices.

3. Block Pornographic Sites: Your software should automatically block access to the dark web, proxy servers, VPNs, and pornography sites.

4. Set Screen Timers: During or before bedtime, users will only be able to send SMS text messages and place phone calls. No Internet or app access should be allowed. Well, unless you allow them to!

5. Send Alerts and Report: Location services will always be “on,” so you can locate the device only by logging into your account.

6. Grant Remote Access: You can view and review text messages, find a device, and manage all essential areas.

7. Easy Acces: What we mean is, it should not take you hours to install the service.

We know parenting is not easy. We do know managing the safety of your child, and the time they spend in front of the screen should be.
