I strongly dislike it. Coming from a child's perspective, I advise parents to steer clear of this. If your child engages in any games with text chat or hangs out in friend groups that use inappropriate language, be prepared for an overwhelming number of notifications daily. The sensitivity is off the charts; even a harmless word like "stupid" triggers alerts about bullying. The control settings are very limited—it's either a basic mode for young kids or completely off, with no middle ground. I wouldn't be surprised if my parents received multiple notifications just from this review. It would be better to opt for a standard device and use a different parental control application.
