As a mother of two teenagers, I was looking for a reliable way to monitor their device usage. AirDroid Parental Control has been a game-changer. The screen time management and app blocking features have helped me set healthy boundaries. I especially appreciate the real-time location tracking and geofencing alerts.

Jessica Lee

AirDroid Parental Control has been a lifesaver for me. With my child attending school remotely, it's crucial to ensure they aren't distracted by non-educational apps. The app's ability to block specific apps and monitor screen time has been invaluable. The setup was straightforward, and the user interface is intuitive.
