Perfect parental controls. It's a shame this app is being sunset as it's the best all-rounder parental control app. It takes the complexity of content management and web safety and wraps it into a fantastic user experience and is cost-effective. If eset come out with a better product for parents on mobile again I'll be the first to purchase this again for my kids. More refined/fine-grain control than family link with dash boarding and scheduling limits. Excellent product

This app is a beautiful one. Big kudos to the team. I noticed however that when I hid the app in the freezer in my child's phone as a way to see if it can be bypassed, I couldn't detect his phone in my own. While the app cannot be uninstalled by my child, it can be hidden from being used. Can that be worked on? Such that even if it is hidden, it can still control the phone.

Was alarmed to see this is being discontinued, then relieved to see it will continue as part of my multi-device premium subscription. Hopefully there is some way to migrate all my settings from the standalone product, guess I have a year to figure it out.

Perfect. The best of all I've used. Been using it for the last 2 years or so. I am sad to see it get taken out of service. @ESET please consider keeping this product on the shelf.

Easy to bypass on Android, basically the most useless parental controls you can waste your money on and don't expect your money back. Edit: ESET will deny there is a known bug in their software that they openly admit to and instead blame it on Android, what a pathetic cop out! Three days ago it was a bug, now they say it's due to Android, other parental controls can't be bypassed from the lock screen! Edit 2: refused refund as I've had it for longer than 30 days...

You can control the applications your child uses, but control over web pages is not enough. For example, he can access YouTube or Web pages from WhatsApp or links from different places. When the time is over, Google can use the Web from the quick search area.

It almost never works. When a parent unblocks, it's still blocked. Even when the parent unpauses it

Free version stopped working after the latest update on both parent and child Samsung devices and required the app reset. Time budgeting don't work in free version anymore. Content filtering wasn't able to block access to any website with inappropriate content (sex) in any of 4 browsers available on the device.
