  • So disappointing. All of the family features now are useless because devices won't recognize my kid's voices even after I remove and retrain their voice match. My kids now can't use Google at all to help set timers or broadcast messages throughout the house. I can see based on Reddit and other reviews here that it's an ecosystem issue that's been persisting for months.

  • It's not the best app. First of all, your child needs their own device with no other accounts on it. Not all children will have their own device. My child has a device, but we can't remove all other accounts because all the games my child plays are on it. The app is also very slow and never loads, and when it does, it's extremely glichy. This app was not helpful and did not meet our requirements.

  • My child has learnt how to bypass this app by turning the internet off, bloody useless EDIT: Can no longer use the lock and unlock feature which is seriously a severe flaw, son needed his phone unlocked to set an alarm and it wouldnt reapond but said it was unlocked on my end so had to manually unlock it with password / code which is inconvenient if im out of the house. We both have internet turned on. this app just keeps getting worse, its a joke and yes ive sent feedback, nothings been done!!!

  • Used to work well, hasn't worked properly for months. I have two children with disabilities and it was a godsend to make sure they got to their destinations safely, this is no longer the case. Now I get no notifications, and it no longer tracks them. Please fix it!

  • This app is garbage. The only part that is remotely useful is that it shows my childs screen usage. This helps me see how the app doesn't enforce the screen time limits, doesn't acknowledge the quiet hours, and doesn't care about app specific screen time limitations.

  • I'm the only managing adult and I keep getting notifications that my daughter has installed apps that I didn't approve, or even get a request for. I still get requests for some apps, but most just bypass that step and install on her phone. ________________ Per the response to my original review, I sent the logs a few months back. No response to date (3/9/24). I received two emails that apps were installed to buy child's device tonight that I never received a request for.
