Understanding Parental Controls: Browsers vs Apps
Understanding the difference between safe browsers and monitoring apps is crucial for effective parental control.
Safe Browsers
Safe browsers are designed specifically for internet browsing. They filter content, enforce SafeSearch, and block inappropriate websites before they load.
Monitoring Apps
Monitoring apps track device activity beyond just browsing. They monitor app usage, screen time, location, and provide comprehensive reporting to parents.
Working Together
