The software is easy to use and it gives you granular control and real insight into what your kids are doing, but it doesn't work well on every platform, it raises some privacy concerns, and the subscription is expensive.Īs the father of an 11-year-old boy with a serious "Fortnite" habit and an 8-year-old girl who is often online, I was interested to try Qustodio. Third-party options like Qustodio aim to bridge that gap by offering a single point of oversight and control that will cover your child's phone, tablet, and laptop or desktop computer.


While the top device manufacturers all offer some form of parental control, they don't play nicely together. Qustodio aims to do exactly that, offering an in-depth look at online activity, web filtering controls, screen time limits, and more. To keep your children safe, it's vital to consider parental controls that can filter out objectionable content, limit overall screen time, and give you some insight into what they're getting up to on the internet. Kids have a world of entertainment at their fingertips nowadays, and most will spend hours each day online or playing games … if you let them.
