Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Protect your children online. Monitor screen time, schedule app blocks, filter web content, and track device status remotely with FamilyGuard.
Provide your children with a safe digital space to explore, learn, and grow. FamilyGuard is a comprehensive parental control solution designed to help you monitor, manage, and guide your child’s device usage. Powered by native iOS Screen Time integration and secure cloud sync, FamilyGuard gives you the tools to foster healthy digital habits and protect your family from online distractions.
KEY FEATURES:
- Smart App and Category Blocking:
Block distracting apps such as YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and games, or restrict entire categories (Social, Games, Entertainment) with a single tap. The app utilizes Apple's official Screen Time API (FamilyControls) to block and shield apps securely directly on the child's device. You can also enforce uninstall protection to ensure the guard remains active.
- Advanced Screen Time and Schedules:
Combine multiple blocking rules—manual toggles, scheduled time windows, and daily usage limits—seamlessly. Set automated blocking windows (such as school hours or bedtime) that lock down selected apps automatically without requiring the app to be open.
- Daily Usage Limits:
Set specific daily allowances in hours and minutes for different apps or categories. Once the limit is reached, access is automatically shielded for the rest of the day.
- Safe Internet and Web Filtering:
Filter inappropriate web content and protect your child from adult or malicious websites. Configure custom web rules to make internet exploration safe and productive.
- Live Usage Analytics:
See what apps your child uses most with visual category breakdowns (such as Education vs. Entertainment). Monitor cumulative daily screen time, app launch counts, and overall trends to understand your child's digital footprint.
- Device Status and Remote Lock:
Remotely check your child’s device battery level from your parental dashboard. Instantly lock or unlock your child's device when it is time to unplug for dinner or family activities.
- Easy Pairing:
Pair parent and child devices in seconds using a secure QR code scanner or sharing link. No complex configuration required.
PRIVACY AND SECURITY FIRST:
We believe in child safety without compromising privacy. We do not read keystrokes or private messages. Powered by secure Supabase database protocols, we ensure your family's data remains private and encrypted. We rely on native Apple Sandboxed APIs, meaning your child's credentials never leave their device.
GETTING STARTED:
1. Install FamilyGuard on the Parent's device and create an account.
2. Add your Child's profile and scan the generated QR code or send the invitation link to the child's device.
3. Grant Screen Time Permissions on the child's device and start customizing schedules, blockers, and limits.
Protect your children online. Monitor screen time, schedule app blocks, filter web content, and track device status remotely with FamilyGuard.
