BackToLife Parent
Social Media Parental Control
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases
iPhone
Are you about to give your child their first phone or their first social media accounts? There is a better way than banning them or just crossing your fingers.
BackToLife removes the addictive parts of social media and leaves everything else. Your child can still chat with friends on Instagram, watch what they like on YouTube, and use TikTok and X. But without Reels, without Shorts, without infinite scroll, or recommendations designed to hook them for hours.
You control everything from your phone:
• Different filters for each network: on Instagram, hide Reels and Explore; on YouTube, hide Shorts, comments, subscriptions, or the home feed; on TikTok and X, hide the infinite video feed. You choose which ones, network by network.
• Set different schedules for school days and weekends.
• Block apps whenever needed.
• See their real-time social media usage: how long, when, and on which app.
• Add multiple children to the same account.
And they can't disable it. On their phone, it displays: "Filters are managed by your parents."
Getting started takes 2 minutes: install BackToLife on their phone, scan a QR code, and you're good to go.
No spying: we don’t read messages or conversations. You see the usage, not the content. Because parenting isn't about surveillance.
BackToLife was created in Spain by a young team that grew up with these platforms and knows exactly what makes them addictive. That's why we don't block social media—we just remove the venom.
BackToLife Parent requires a subscription.

What's new in 1.2.1
• Setup needs your child's phone only once: the rules and your passcode are set on your phone first, and scanning the code is the last step.
• A banner on the dashboard while a child's phone still needs the setup finished. You can dismiss it.
• The last setup screen shows what is really blocked on your child's phone.
• Sleep and Focus schedules only let you pick times that work, and a note under the times explains the allowed range.
• We let you know before your subscription ends, and if a payment fails, while your child is still protected, by notification and email.
• Change the app's language from the subscribe screen. Languages are listed in their own names: English, Español, Italiano.
• Notifications, emails and dashboard dates arrive in the language you use the app in.
• The code screen sends as soon as you type the sixth digit, and joining an existing family explains what it does.
• Clearer colours and bigger buttons throughout the setup.
• The old guided tour is gone: the setup now walks you through.
