This $4.99 app can be your eyes and ears as your children tap away. Simply set your filtering level at Elementary, Middle or High School and it automatically applies filtering standards used by K-12 school systems. You can then set further filters that allow or block specific websites or categories of websites; for example, you can block all social media websites, or messaging blogs. You also have the ability to manage multiple-aged users with different filters, set time limits on Internet use, and view their Internet activity.
