I absolutely love this app… It helps me keep track of my kids anywhere with the added bonus of being able to see any notifications that come to their phones. And the fact that the app and icon physically disappear from the phone that your tracking is A++ in my book… 😇😉👍

I am impressed by the AirDroid Parental Control. It is easy to use and budget-friendly. It took me a few minutes to set up the app, and I could set screen time limits, website schedule, and geofence for my kids. Highly recommended!

CH ABDULRAHMAN

Wow! Great achievement. So simple and easy to use. Fully functional to track kid's social media activities. It also provides me access to the messages on my kid's phone and helps me know his activities. Being in the office I have no worries about kids! I can track their location anytime I want. Best App for parents I have ever used.

AirDroid Parental Control is much better than other parental monitoring apps I used previously. It's cost-efficient, has more features, and allows me to block games, apps, and websites that are not good for my child in one click.
