3 days trial was great even it's a short time to find out potential issues. Purchased and used for a few weeks, glitched many times, reinstalled countless times but no chance it doesn't work as expected. Started to lose the pairing between parent and child device, shows zero time for daily screen. Support unable to provide an effective support other than giving basic instructions which doesn't help. Needs to be battle tested by the developers as each install gives a high amount of stress

Doesn't work. Initially I was very impressed by it so went for the lifetime license. Then after a few months I realised that my.son could delete it. I contacted support on several occasions who guided me on potential issues and checked that all the settings were correct. He still kept on deleting the app without any issues after they had confirmed it was set up correctly on his phone. Now fed up and requested a refund which has been rejected as more than 7 days since purchase. Don't buy!

I feel as though this app has had a lot of negative reviews but my experience has been good. Yes there were a couple of teething problems initially but once I got the hang of it managing my two children's phones became very easy. I can choose to block certain sites, disable apps, filter content, set a different time limit for each day and even choose the hours when the phones are "active". I can lock their phones any time I want from my own phone. All this for a very reasonable annual fee...
