Keep your child focused on schoolwork—not on other internet distractions

Managing remote work and home schooling can be challenging. The School Time feature frees up your time and lets you add specific sites required by your child’s school, while letting you block others when school is in session.

Stay informed about your child’s location

Favorite Locations

Help establish approved boundaries for your children’s physical locations. Parents can set up alerts for when a child arrives to, or leaves from an area on a map within a set radius determined by the parent ‡‡.

Alert Me

Stay informed of your child’s location automatically. Parents can set up alerts that report the location of their child’s device at a specific date and time ‡‡.

Check In

Make it easy for your children to send you their device’s current location at any time. Children can report their location to their parents with a few taps on their mobile app ‡‡.
