OurPact
OurPact is a parental-control app for managing children’s iPhones, iPads, Android phones, and Android tablets. It provides daily screen-time limits, schedules, and instant blocking or unblocking. Location features include live location, location history, and alerts for designated places. Content monitoring uses screenshots, OCR, AI flagging, and custom detection for harmful content. A child profile can pair with multiple devices, including a mix of iOS and Android. Paid plans cover up to 20 child devices and include device safeguards. On iOS 18 or older, tamperproofing can prevent removal without parent approval. OurPact says data is encrypted, personal information is not sold or shared, and screenshots are stored in an encrypted gallery. The Free plan is free and lists one child device, five manual blocks per month, and one automated block schedule. Premium is $6.99 per month or $69.99 billed annually; Premium+ is $9.99 per month or $99.99 billed annually. A 14-day free trial is listed.
