Qustodio
Qustodio helps families manage children’s device use on Windows, Android, iOS, Mac, and Kindle. It can filter content, block or limit apps and websites, set time limits and schedules, pause internet access, and create screen-free routines. Activity monitoring covers browsing, social media, location, and more in real time; activity reports and location tracking are also listed. Social monitoring includes WhatsApp, Instagram, and Line, while the Premium comparison also lists TikTok, Snapchat, and X chat alerts. Calls and messages monitoring on iOS requires a Windows or Mac computer. The panic button and certain Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and X alerts are Android-only. The free version provides basic protection for one device. Basic costs $72.94 per year and covers up to five devices; Complete costs $104.95 per year and covers unlimited family devices. Qustodio offers a 30-day money-back guarantee and invites free-account users to try Premium features.
