It's been working great for us. It's very cool to have the protection of your home Gryphon router wherever you may be on both free Wi-Fi and over the air data. The bad reviews are older and about kids being able to shut it down. I believe this is where you have to talk to your kids and explain what it does. It's not a tracker but an anti malware protection. Once they understand that they really will have no reason to turn it off. It's not a control app but a protection app. Don't force it on them
★★★★★
Excellent VPN for on the go. It only works when you are away from your house. Not in it. It streams everything from your mobile data back though Gryphon, so you don't get spoofed or hacked while away from your place. Many bad reviews, are from people who don't know how to use this. It really works. Call them if not, and they will square it away, with a forced Gryphon firmware update.
★★☆☆☆
While the Gryphon router does a great job at home, the Home bound app does not filter out inappropriate images from Google searches. Have been trying to solve the problem for over a month with no progress. In addition, lower tier support is great, but higher tier support is simply not responsive. I'm really disappointed with Gryphon.

With my Pixel 6 Pro and T-Mobile 5G UC most frequently connected, this app prevented me from doing simple tings like opening my banking apps, "took too long to respond." I bus 20 minutes to and from work and go out shopping driving on the weekend. I couldn't open Maps. -- Pixel Support helped me troubleshoot my inability to connect to frequently used apps as mentioned including Chrome. We reset Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, cleared the app cache, and made sure that Android is updated. -- That's when I had a light bulb go off. This all started after I began to use Home bound. Who's managing the VNC? Sometimes I use VNC to work from home, as do many of my coworkers. It's not unusual to have to ask our Technical Services Manager to make it work again. -- I am willing to be educated if someone can enlighten me about what's wrong.---I was happy to receive an immediate response from Gryphon here. It seems to confirm my experience. Our Gryphon router is a great improvement over the previous one, I'll say that!
★★☆☆☆
The app works by building a VPN to the Gryphon router so all the controls on the home router apply to the mobile device. Once you get it installed (took me two days working with a very non-responsive tech support group), the mobile user can defeat the controls by simply not launching the Home bound app at boot-up (it doesn't auto launch), rebooting the phone or, going to settings/connections/more connection settings/VPN and delete the VPN connection there. Total miss on parental control.
