Parental Control App - Kidslox Reviews

Thank you

As a mom of two kids, I should say that Kidslox helps a lot in managing their phones‌ ‍ ‍

Pushy app permissions and limited functionality

MustBKing

The app insists that tracking permissions are required on the monitoring phone that it wouldn’t need to do its job as a remote. It also asks every time it is opened to enable push notifications to function properly and you will have to skip the prompt twice before you can get into the program. When I contacted support about how to disable the prompt they were not helpful but simply repeated what the permission prompt said that the app cannot work properly without push notifications enabled. I told them that they hadn’t explained anything new to me and that designing their app to need push notifications is a flaw. The app only allows time in general to be limited and does not provide the ability to limit the time of specific apps. It is more likely this app is spyware designed to data mine both the parent phones and monitored phones.

I hate this app.

YEETER...

My mom got this app and I hate it so much it makes me so mad I’m middle school and I can’t enjoy my day bcs my screen time starts at 8 it’s ruining my life I don’t get to enjoy things now because of it I hate this stupid app it’s ruining my mental health it’s not teaching discipline it’s more like making your child hate you more and ruining they’re life. </3

Do NOT download! :(

U SUS BRO-

I got this for my daughter and it was going good until I put her device in lockdown so she could sleep. When I turned it off, all of her apps were taken out of their groups and scattered everywhere. It make my daughter cry because of what happened. Do NOT recommend, don't download this app. If you want an app that helps with your family, Try OurHome.

Content filtering is not working

mom of 5 little humans

I am having to go and block each website individually as the content filtering isn’t working and porn sites keep showing up on my child’s phone and she isn’t going to these sites at all because I have the phone in my hand and it’s being done in the background as I am looking up stuff on her phone. Editing to add I didn’t want to pay for the subscription after the very extremely short trial that should have been a little longer to get the full experience of the app but somehow I have paid for the app for the next 3 months. I’m not very fond of paying for something I’m not using since it keeps going to porn sites on its own. My child keeps bringing it to me daily to say it’s gone to a porn site and I don’t know why this is even happening because she has never gotten porn sites before on her phone. This is the worst app ever and for the price you pay it should be better.

Works with iOS and Andrọid

My older son has an iphone while my younger son has Andrọid. I appreciate it that Kidslox lets me manage both of them from my iPhone

Adding More Screen time

aamiyah enaye

It won’t let me add anymore screen time to my daughters phone ?? It’s asking me to pay? But it says I’m supposed to be able to add more screen time.

Eases routine for our family.

It has becọme much easier to make kids do the chores, as I add them some 10-15 minutes to daily limit.

Good for the first day

Sward1259

It was great the first day we used it. After that, it would show he had 1 hour of his 1 hour left, but the statistics showed he had been on his phone for 45 minutes (not to mention I was right next to him, and knew he’d used 45 minutes). Then, the screenshot quit working. It said we needed to finish setup on the child device, but there was nothing left to set up, when I would check. Doesn’t seem to work well.
