At home, attending school, or on the go, Norton Family helps keep children focused on what’s most important.
• Monitor the sites and content your child views Make the Web safer for your kids to explore—by keeping you informed of which sites your kids are visiting, and letting you block potentially harmful and inappropriate content.‡
• Set limits on your child’s internet access Help your kids balance time spent online by scheduling screen time limits for their device usage.‡ This can helps you focus your child on schoolwork and avoid online distractions while remote learning or at bedtime.‡
• Stay informed about your child’s physical location Use geo-location features in the app to track your child’s location. Receive alerts if you’re your child arrives in or goes beyond areas of interest established by you. (4)
Here are some of the Norton Family features parents can use to help protect their child’s online activities.

• Web Supervision Let your kids explore the Web freely, with tools that help you block unsuitable websites while keeping you in the know about which sites they’re visiting. (6)
• Video Supervision See a list of the YouTube videos your kids watch on their PCs or mobile devices and even view a snippet of each video, so you know when you need to talk. (3)
• Mobile App Supervision See which apps your kids have downloaded on their Android devices. Choose which ones they can use. (5)
Time Features:
• School Time Remote learning requires the internet, so pausing the internet on your child’s device is not an option. Manage content access to relevant categories and websites to help your child maintain focus while school is in session.
Location Features:
• Alert Me Stay informed about your child’s location automatically. You can set specific dates and times to receive automatic alerts of the location of a child’s device. (2)

Comments on Norton Family Parental Control for Android
★★★★★Kuri Ma· May 20, 2026
I used this to help our teen manage content and screen time. The app did everything it was supposed to do for us, tracking usage of two devices, one ipad and one and android phone. Couldn't see what content was viewed on the ipad, but could track time and which apps were being used. Didn't use location tracking. Even now with all content and time restrictions turned off, I can see how long the device is used, and send them the graph, so they can make good decisions based on the info.

@NortonMobile, 1. If I block the Google Play Store on Norton Family, will apps still update automatically on the Google Play Store? 2. The same applies to any other Mobile/PC App Stores? Please, @NortonMobile, reply. ❤️ Thank You. ❤️

Generally good but: Can't monitor my son's app usage in real time ie how long he has been using the phone today and how long for each app. There are figures, but they seem to be weekly figures - today's usage shows: no activity found (frustrating). There is no quick Boost button whereby I can extend his screen time just on this one occasion (I have to adjust the daily settings which requires a lot of clicks!).

Annoying not responsive takes 2-5 seconds to respond plenty for kids to do stuff auto blocks other antivirus and parental controls
★☆☆☆☆Shannon Kellogg· Mar 6, 2026
It is not blocking apps. My son has discovered that all he has to do is keep clicking a blocked app, and it lets him in. what is the point of paying for this service?
★☆☆☆☆Jason Kong· Jun 26, 2026
Kids can bypass the restriction by disabling Norton Family Parental Control in accessibility shortcut.
★☆☆☆☆Matthieu Maitre· May 2, 2026
Android battery optimization turns off the app on the child device, rendering it useless
