While this one isn't as granular in its ability to filter or block search content, it's perfect for families that want to set up clear limits. It reports how much time is spent on each app and it has a wonderful "pause" button that parents can control, which allows for them to pause every device in the house with a popup message that can say, "Screen pause: Go outside and play for 40 minutes." Screen Time lets parents dictate which apps are approved and how much time kids can spend on a device overall. Not to be confused with Apple's Screen Time, which offers some parental controls and time-usage statistics, Screen Time offers the a simple and straightforward approach to monitoring usage. Screen Time allows parents to remotely pause or reward extra time on the device. For example, you can choose to block certain content like death, gore, or mature themes, while simultaneously setting up alerts for terms like "drug use." This can alert you to their searches, so you can decide if it's something you'd like to talk to your child about in person.
I really like that you can give tiered protection that flag-instead of block-searched content, allowing you the chance to have a discussion with your child. Net Nanny's lack of call- or text-message monitors could be a deal breaker for some users, but its existing features make it one of the best options out there. If you are less concerned about your child getting stuck in a video game loop and more worried about them stepping into sticky online situations, Net Nanny's excellent web-filtering technology makes it a top choice. Net Nanny's flagged terms alert you to searches of sensitive topics that may warrant an in-person discussion with your child.
