Great app

This is a truly great piece of art that can be easily deleted off of ones cellular device I recommend getting this app for a nice joke or prank on one of your kids because they will probably end up laughing at it and deleting the app entirely. The functions of this app are not entirely functional such as the location tracker sometimes this feature is so off that you can end up states away from your child or whom ever it is that your paired with. Keep in mind that this app might screw with your WiFi so you might not want to connect to your WiFi wile using this app. If there are any kids reading this trying to stay up simply hold down on the app and delete the app. What this will do is it will make your parents or whoever is paired with you extremely mad at you. Don’t worry though now that the app isn’t on your phone you can do whatever you want. Now to the parents that use this app. One easy fix to every problem one could have with this app simply find another app. This might seem hard but it will be worth it.

Secure Family Companion: A Frustrating Invasion of Privacy

Secure Family Companion is an app designed to help parents monitor and control their children’s phone usage, but in reality, it feels more like an oppressive invasion of privacy. The app gives parents way too much control, making it feel like you’re constantly under surveillance. It tracks your location, restricts access to apps, and even limits screen time without any flexibility.

The worst part is that there’s no room for negotiation. If a parent sets a restriction, you’re stuck with it, no matter how unreasonable it may feel. Want to look something up for school late at night? Too bad, your phone’s locked. Want to hang out with friends and use social media? Nope, they’ve blocked that too.

The app also suffers from constant glitches. Random disconnections, incorrect location tracking, and overactive controls make it even more frustrating. Instead of fostering communication and trust between parents and kids, it creates a hostile environment where you’re constantly monitored.

Overall, Secure Family Companion feels more like a tool for spying than for parenting. It gives parents way too much control, and as a user, it makes you feel powerless and frustrated. Avoid this app unless you want to feel like you’re living in a digital prison.

Horrible

This app was literally the most up surd thing my mom has made me do so far with my phone. It slowed my WiFi down to a crawl not only for this phone but for every other devise in the house. I let my mom know this and she thought I was being “ridiculous” I also let her know I am now 16 a multi sport athlete and have good grades and I don’t like being stalked and I don’t want random hacking it and seeing we’re I am on plant earth. This app eventual made my WiFi so bad that I just cut out completely at some points that I had enough and deleted it laughed at it and thought who is actually this stupid to put there kid through this. Don’t get me wrong I love my mom she’s not a witch it’s just she needs to loosen up I’m 16 for crying out loud I’m done being babyed I have a life I don’t have time to be stupid and I’m not a bad kid I don’t get what this app was for. I just hate the feeling of being stalked (also with this app you have to delete the manger thing in settings).
