I downloaded this app a year ago, tried the free version and eventually paid for premium subscription. I was able to successfully restrict access to certain apps, inappropriate content and screentime for my daughters phone very well. I gave for the success of that time. However, we upgraded phones recently and the set up has been so very difficult!! In order to set up premium features it now requires me to download the PC app as well. Well, whatever it tries to download NEVER downloads and stay stuck at 5%. i have tried downloading again, rebooted, deleted and reinstalled and never manage to finish set up because its get stuck at 5% download. PC app is so irritating. Wish I could do everything thru the phone app like I did before in my initial set up. I tried reaching out for help and haven’t heard back in two days. Didn’t get an auto response acknowledging my email so I’m not sure if anyone will eventually get back to me.*Update* i eventually received a response and they tried getting more info to fix it. Replied back and said that it had been fixed and they released a new ISO version BUT it still doesn’t download past 5%. I really liked this but I can no longer use my paid subscription and only get watered down features that are hardly helpful on their own. It doesn’t seem a fix is coming before my subscription expires, so I definately won’t be renewing to $50 subcription.

This is exactly what i needed!!

I had been struggling to break my kids from there screen habits. They were on every waking moment, and i was sick of telling them to do something else... i have been using this for about six months now. Im not someone who uses my phone allot, and am not overly tech savvy. i was able to install this on both my kids i-pads with no problems. The schedules and modes are perfect. My kids are with grandparents after school for a couple of hours. I didn't want to burden them with taking the games away so they would do their homework. I set it up to work when they are off of school, and then turn off after the bus ride, so they can do homework. When they get done, they text me (text still works) i can check with grandparents, and then turn the apps back on from my phone at work. It only takes a few seconds. Im still the bad guy..., grandma and grandpa are still the hero. Then when allowed time runs out, the apps shut off, and they go outside because there is nothing else to do. Or i can add time as a reward, or whatever. They fought pretty hard at first to get more time. Now they rarely use it all. They have just made a new habit of playing outside, or playing games together. I did however have to lock out the TV as well. Pretty easy with our cable box. I have run into a few hiccups, mostly self inflicted, but the support has been fast and great. I recommend giving this a try, it is worth the money to me. Biggest downfall is now I'm always texting back and forth with kids and grandparents after school. And the apps get put into alphabetical order. I basically told my kids to just deal with it, and i still use my phone less than anyone i know.

I don’t know what’s happening with the app
none -,-
Okay so I’m the kid who’s writing the review but there are some problems when my parents give me time. The first problem is when my parents give me like 30 minutes, the app takes out literally half of the minutes and I had 18. I know this because I stayed on Kidslox looking at my minutes but like 2 minutes later it turned into 18 minutes but this isn’t the first time. My mother gave me 1 hour but it turned into 50 minutes. When my parents give me minutes I always check first. I don’t understand this app. My parents are saying it keeps me off the phone but I can barely talk to friends but what I’m saying is that it ruined my life. Some of my friends don’t even talk to me and I wanna talk to them. Okay, I’m going to stop talking about something stupid and talk about why I’m really typing. This happened a few months ago but kidslox kinda glitches and the glitches are when I can’t type or see the messages my friends sent and I know because I had minutes and I decided to delete kidslox to see if the problems was from that and when I deleted it. All my messages came back But than my dad installed it again. But that problem is gone I don’t think it’s going to happen again. But what I’m trying to say is that you could read this and fix the problems cause I don’t what this to happen all the time, where for every minute I have to look at kidslox to see if it is gone or not. Please fix. Thank you.

Horrible app
Ihatekidsloxx
I have read a lot of reviews on this and they are mostly bad so parents if you want your kids to hate you for the rest of their life for ruining the best years of their life this is the perfect app and I get it you want your kids to be safe and all but this is not the way to go instead try and set boundaries talk to them plus this also deletes storage off your mobile device instead I would recommend using another app that is less expensive and annoying parents if your reading this don't waste your time buying this thinking you've done something when in reality you've made the problem worse. Kids will always find another way weather it's another device or figuring out the password. My advice is to save your money and your kids relationship and not get this app. Other ways is approaching your kid(s) with a deal that will make you both happy like trying to set(I say trying because there at other ways to approach this) boundaries talK tO them plus this also deletes storage off your mobile device instead I would recommend using another app that is less expensive and annoying parents if your reading this don't waste your time buying this thinking you've done something when in reality you've made the problem worse. Kids will always find another way weather it's another device or figuring out the password my advice is to save your money and relationship with your kid (s) and not get this app.

If you are a kid, we recommend you discuss your allowed screen time with your parents as we do hope you understand that excessive usage of the devices can be very harmful to your health and studies.
1. Easier set-up for new users;
2. New, improved help bot & customer support;
3. Minor bug fixes and UI changes.
