ESET Parental Control

Navigating the digital world can be challenging for parents, but our goal is to provide you with the peace of mind that your children are safe while using their smartphones and tablets. Here's how our comprehensive suite of features ensures their internet safety and well-being.

1. App Guard: It's no secret that kids would spend all day on their devices if they could. With App Guard, you can set daily limits for gaming and restrict playtime during school hours or at night. This feature automatically manages apps and games, ensuring your children only access age-appropriate content.

2. Web Guard: The internet is vast and can expose kids to inappropriate content like fake news, violence, or adult material. Web Guard acts as a shield, blocking access to such harmful websites and ensuring a safer online experience for your children.

3. Child Locator and Geofencing: If your child is late from school and not answering their phone, Child Locator can pinpoint their current location. Additionally, Geofencing sends you notifications when your child enters or leaves designated areas, keeping you informed of their whereabouts.

4. Battery Protector: Worried about your child's phone battery dying when you need to reach them? Battery Protector limits gaming when the battery level falls below a set threshold, ensuring the device remains accessible.

5. Instant Block and Vacation Mode: Need your child to focus on a task without distractions? Instant Block temporarily bans games and entertainment apps. Conversely, if your child has some free time, Vacation Mode allows you to suspend time limits temporarily.

6. Request Exceptions: If a rule seems too strict or a new app is blocked, children can request an exception. Parents can instantly approve or deny these requests, maintaining control over device usage.

7. Remote Management: Need to adjust settings? Log into my.eset.com from any device to change rules remotely. If you're an Android user, install our app in parent mode to receive instant notifications about your child's device activity.

8. Device Status: Can't reach your child? Check the Devices section to see if their phone is muted or offline, helping you understand why they might not be responding.

9. Multi-Device Coverage: With one license, you can protect multiple devices, ensuring your entire family stays safe online, no matter how many smartphones or tablets they use.

10. Detailed Reports: Curious about your child's interests or how they spend their time on their device? Our Reports feature provides detailed insights into their activities and screen time.

11. Multilingual Support: Language barriers won't hinder communication. Our app supports 30 languages, ensuring clear communication with your children.

PERMISSIONS

Our app requires the Device Administrator permission to prevent your children from uninstalling ESET Parental Control without your consent. Additionally, Accessibility services are used to anonymously protect your children from inappropriate online content and monitor their app and game usage.

WHY IS THE APP RATING LOW?

It's important to note that children can also rate our app, and not all are pleased with the content filtering that restricts access to intriguing but inappropriate material.
