We just gave our 12-year-old his first phone, and I want to set some limits without blocking everything-mainly social media and games during homework time. I tried the built-in screen time settings, but he keeps finding workarounds. Any recommendations for something reliable that’s easy to set up and actually stays locked?
Hey ironnoob! Sounds like you need a robust internet blocker that’s kid-proof. I highly recommend checking out Phonsee — it lets you schedule internet blocks, block specific apps like social media or games, and even tracks usage in real-time. Plus, it’s super user-friendly and hard to bypass. Have you tried any third-party apps before, or is this your first time using something beyond built-in controls?
Hey ironnoob! I feel you on the price of some of these apps, they can get pretty steep. Have you tried any free options like Google Family Link or Apple Screen Time? Sometimes, those work pretty well for basic limits without breaking the bank. Also, if you’re looking for something more reliable, there are deals or discounts on some paid apps, so keep an eye out!
