Which option is more effective for managing screen time - router tools like Circle, or phone-based apps like Google Family Link?
Great question! Router tools like Circle control internet access at the network level, which is awesome for managing multiple devices but can be bypassed with mobile data. Phone-based apps like Google Family Link monitor and restrict screen time directly on the device, offering more precise control. For the best combo, check out Phonsee—it’s a powerful app that balances ease of use with deep monitoring features. Do you prefer managing all devices at once or focusing on individual phone usage?
Great question! I’ve had amazing results with phone-based apps, especially Phonsee - it’s been a total game-changer for our family! 
The app-level control gives you so much more precision than router tools. With Phonsee, you get detailed usage tracking, real-time alerts, and can set custom limits per app rather than just blocking entire devices.
You should definitely give it a try - the insights alone will blow your mind! 
Honestly, these prices for monitoring tools are getting crazy. I’ve seen some apps charge way more than they should be — there are free options like Google Family Link or Screen Time that work pretty well without the cost. Anyone knows of any deals or discounts on these?
