It has problems and is unneeded – MyCircle with Disney Review

I understand circle and that it was made to get kids to bed on time but for me and my family other methods worked have worked a lot better. Circle slows your WiFi down a lot which is a problem I have seen from other old reviews that still has not been fixed. Circle also randomly stops your phone in the middle of the day even though your bedtime was not set for then. It also turns electronics off early sometimes which can be very stressful when a lot of productivity and learning with apps like Duolingo and Khan academy is done before bed because numerous studies say that before bed is actually the best time to learn and your progress is stopped and erased by random early bedtimes. When an app is blocked on this app it just looks like the app is taking long to load or the app signs you out and you can’t sign back in I have been logged out of many accounts because of this and this is very stressful. Finally although a lot of others have touched on this I would like to say using an app to parent your child is not okay. If you want your kid to not be on their phones you shouldn’t use yours to take theirs away. Have them actually hand you their phones or trust them to get sleep have them put their phones in your room and keep them plugged in overnight. Take your kids phone and they miss it for a sad night or two which is hard for both of you but teach your kid to limit cell phone time with hobbies and teach them to put their phones away and they will have learned a good lesson and will not be angry at you for using an app to control them and instead be happy you talked with them.
