Descripción

Solve the kid / phone problem with Pinwheel. No need to figure out which parental controls manage which device best! Pinwheel's custom-built system gives you the proper tool to teach your child healthy tech habits from day one.

This Pinwheel app provides access to our Caregiver Portal. The Caregiver Portal give you the power to configure and control a Pinwheel smartphone for your child. The phone and the app work hand-in-hand to let your kid establish a healthy relationship with technology.

In this app, you can:

- **Safelist contacts.** You approve every contact the Pinwheel phone can call or text, and you can schedule when those contacts are available each day. No strangers, no spam calls, no texting friends all night.


- **Enable apps.** No app store on the Pinwheel phone **keeps app choices in your hands**, not your child's. The curated app boutique makes it easy to choose useful, healthy apps for your child. No social media, no addictive games, not internet browsing, no mindless consumption.


- **Schedule Permissions.** Our Days/Modes calendar lets you choose which contacts and apps are available at what times of day. No texting friends during school, no staying up late using apps. You choose what they can do during different times of day. No need to constantly remind them what is and isn't ok. **Pinwheel helps them develop healthy boundaries around technology use, without the drama**.


- **Create Routines.** Help your child learn to be more independent and responsible with Pinwheel's fully-customizable checklists. A morning routine to make sure they're ready for school on time, with teeth brushed and backpack in hand. A bedtime routine for evening peace. Routines for chores, for music practice, for anything you'd like your kid to do without you telling them for the millionth time. Gold stars and confetti help them celebrate their daily wins and nurture good habits as they *ask* to stay on track.


- **Parent Them Well.** Live Status shows you the location of the phone. Text history and a Bark subscription allow you to monitor and coach them on appropriate communication.

"Waiting as long as possible" for a phone isn't a plan. Giving them a phone designed for adults and hoping you set up all the controls correctly is a recipe for stress. Pinwheel solves the kid phone problem, with a phone designed to work for both of you.

You get a tool to teach them how to use technology well. They get a phone that helps them live their best life.

Bad design

I like that I can remotely manage the phone. But the methods are pretty terrible. It’s hard to discover how to block or unblock apps, and the main issue is that you have to make permanent changes (unless you remember to undo changes); i.e. no adding 5 minutes or anything. The schedule has been in beta forever, and for some reason doesn’t allow you a custom time limit; only presets, and no 0 mins/disable when setting times limits on individual days. Additionally it does not give enough information about app usage. No way to check individual app usage, no way to dig into app usage details. It’s a great idea, but poorly executed.

Edit:
The schedule is a bit more flexible as I have dug into it. It does allow for “override”; which I really like. There are also more options for scheduling. Still not super intuitive, but enough to bump my rating a star.

Easy to customize, grows with your child

I have recommended pinwheel to countless parents; 2 of our 4 children have a pinwheel so far! The app does have its bugs, but pinwheel responds very quickly to fix them. I love how easy it is to set restrictions or grant privileges with just a few clicks. I love how you can set schedules for any time of day for any length of time AND allow and disallow any/all apps PLUS set time restrictions within that. Toggling between different children is very smooth and easy. Parents can see ALL texts, even deleted ones!! There’s so many different options within the texting app-parent OR child approve contacts, image texting or not for individual contacts or all contacts, emergency contacts (contacts allowed during nothing mode), allow or disallow group texting and more!!!! The phone is so customizable that the restrictions can be released as the child demonstrates maturity. The customer support is unparalleled! I would love to be on the pinwheel team in app testing or customer service, that’s how much we have loved our experience!

Glitchy and Poor Customer Service

Pinwheel has a cool concept and competitive price, but the poor quality the of software, hardware, and customer service undermine it.

When authorizing apps through the caregiver app, those apps would not always appear on the kid’s phone.

The Pinwheel phone itself was glitchy with the camera often freezing and the home screen being blank.

The process of trying to retun the glitchy phone after having it for only a few days was very painful. I had to send about a dozen photos proving It was still in good condition, had a lengthy thread trying to talk with a supervisor (never did), and then multiple email instructions of how to get the phone ready to ship back to them.
