Kaspersky Safe Kids with GPS 4+

Better control that is harder to break

This app allows me a better control to my son’s computer usage when compared to the previous parental control software given from the OS, that allows my son to change his own setting without my permission, in a price of a few cups of coffee per year.

The internet search keyword logging also allows to know more about my kid. Of course, not meant to be used as a spyware, but just for educational purposes.

Strongly recommend this app.

It lost one star for the slowing down my son’s computer and is something I still have to workout.

But generally love it definitely!

Rubbish app Doesn’t work majority of the time.

Here is a very honest parent’s review. Very disappointed. Does not work MOST of the time. Leaves kids unsafe especially online. As parents we expect the app to work always. Contacted their support team who made excuses to the reason why their app does not work such as a recent windows update. They then require full download of your child computer including the personal data on child computer to work out why the app does not work. As a parent I am not comfortable giving out data from my child’s laptop/computer to a third party Kaspersky to make their app workable. The support team said the information they need does not include any personal data. However as you go through the step by step information collection process advise by them, you have to AGREE to provide all personal data on the child computer to third party before the information can be collected. I Googled the issue of Kaspersky kids safe app not working and found so many parents dating back, all having the same problem, same advice given by support team ( download and send them information from child computer) and given up using the app. Who knows what information parents may send to Kaspersky unknowingly about their child. Why sell app that does not work? Very unsafe for children. Your app does not work 95% of the time. It is not even worth a rating!

Works really well!

Love this for monitoring the kids internet use - can see web sites visited and searches and times online - can restrict access to set hours available (esp for the midnight sneakers). It can be a bit confusing to start with - figuring out how to use it - could be a bit more user friendly, but is getting there with updates - maybe allow easier access for inputting child hours at short notice - and ability to put a name to a computer number for more than one child - only small things. Love the alerts received when child tries restricted sites - it is far easier to use the app than to set things on the web address - much quicker as web address can be slow suspect from their firewalls in place. Ive recommended it to many parents.
