Curb your children’s bad Online habits without ticking them off with ‘Forcefield’

child safety online

This iOS app helps parents monitor their children’s smartphone & desktop surfing & app activity, remotely & in a respectful & unobtrusive manner. Parents get a pretty high level of knowledge & control, while their offsprings get the feeling that they are not being excessively hassled.

Today’s highly connected world can prove to be a dangerous place for younger users, but it can also be a great place to learn, socialize & grow. So you can’t afford to let your kids miss out on participating by using aggressive Site blockers or spyware tools on them.

If youngsters feel overly controlled they’ll often rebel & hack their way around any limits you try to put on their activity. That’s why Forcefield takes kids’ opinions into account when deciding which Sites to block & which to include in their recommended Sites list. Unlike competing products, Forcefield doesn’t take a heavy-handed approach.

Forcefield consists of a number of components that, taken together, can wind up giving parents peace of mind. These are:

  • App Sleeper – lets you remotely turn off apps on kids’ mobile devices, or schedule the apps to sleep for periods like homework time or while sleeping
  • Activity report – you can see which Websites are being visited by your kids by monitoring browsing activity on mobile or desktop
  • Browsing Controls – lets you block objectionable Sites, so your kids don’t go there
  • Curated Library – access to a list of 400+ curated premium Websites & recommended apps
  • App report – lets you browse the apps on your children’s mobile devices & gives you alerts when a new app is installed
  • Photo Report – you get access to any photos or videos posted by your kids on social networks

Forcefield is based in Los Angeles, California, USA. You can try it out on your iPhone or iPad for free for 30 days, after which you need to pay.
