It is nice to be able to put restrictions on some things and sometimes get alerted if inappropriate messages are received. However, it misses a lot, frequently doesn't lock YouTube or games after the daily time limit is reached, and the technology and layout of the app hasn't been updated or improved since we first used it over 6 years ago for our oldest. At this point, there's probably more efficient programs out there.

In regards to Tiffany Carter's review. First off the price is no where in the description or even on that page. If you download and open the page you still will not be able to find the price. I have searched high and low. I even went to the link the app gives to check prices and it still will not give them to me. It is set up so you have to down load everything and set the phones up before they give you a price. They do this so they can get all your information to sell it. JOKE!

4 kids, grade 7 and up. In my experience, parental control apps have generally been terrible. MMGuardian is the exception. It allows me to see how much time my child is spending on every app. It also allows parents to control how much time is allowed on each app. You can set internet viewing filters and bedtime, etc. They have a GPS location option as well. It's not perfect but it's far and away the best I've tried out of 3 or 4 others. They also have keyword and photo monitoring. Excellent

About MMGuardian Parental Control
3,358 characters
Use MMGuardian Parental Control in your family to help keep your kids safe online. Our advanced parental controls enable easy remote child monitoring. Link this parent app with your child's phone to set parent limits on screen time, block apps & games, filter the internet, monitor text messages and get safety alerts. MMGuardian also includes a GPS location tracker.
This is the app for the parent's phone - you must also install a different app on your child's phone. Install this parent app first, and you will be guided to download the relevant Android parental control app or iPhone parental control app from Google Play or the App Store, on your child's phone.
Receive alerts when your child's text messages, supported social media chat messages or web searches are indicative of drugs, sexting, cyberbullying, child grooming, violence, suicidal thoughts and more.
What does MMGuardian Do? With the MMGuardian Child Phone App installed to your child's Android phone, you will be able to monitor and block: • SMS text messages • Web browsing activity • Application usage • Phone calls
Social Media Chat Monitoring In addition to normal SMS texts, chat messages from Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Instagram, Kik, TikTok and Discord are reported. Alerts will be sent to you if the content in a SMS text or chat message appears to relate to one of nine special categories including sexting, cyberbullying and suicidal thoughts.
The benefits of using MMGuardian Parental Control when your child has an Android phone include:
• Alerting you when text messages or web searches are indicative of sexting, cyberbullying, suicidal thoughts and more. • Alerting you when pictures on your child's phone, or sent in an MMS message, are of an adult nature or indicative of sexting. • Comprehensive reports for text messages, app usage, web browsing and voice calls.
Additional Functions • Locate your child's phone • Quickly lock or unlock your child's phone • Set limits for screen time, app usage, web filtering
This app on your phone and the one on your child's phone must be registered using the same (parent's) email address. Both your phone and your child's phone should have network data capability, as the app uses data to send and receive configuration commands, reports and alerts.
Free 14 day trial You do not need to set up a subscription to get the free 14 day trial. After the free trial period of the app on the child's phone has ended, unless the child phone app is licensed by a subscription, the functions in this Parent App that relate to premium functions on the child's app will be disabled. However you can still use MMGuardian to locate your child's phone remotely.
Subscriptions You may purchase a subscription from within this Parental Control app app to apply to the MMGuardian app installed on your child's phone. Subscriptions are $4.99/mo or $49.99/year for one child phone. Family plans for up to 5 child devices are twice these amounts.
We encourage parents to discuss the reasons to use a parental control app with their children, which include helping to protect them from potential risks of their own actions and the actions of others, such as excessive screen time, cyberbullying and sexting.
