Some apps are distributed as Split APKs (multiple .apk files packaged together) to optimize resources. Standard Android installers cannot open them.
This version brings improvements on the way Parental Control monitoring and management is applied.
With the new network filtering capabilities, you will be able to easily choose the restricted categories and manage the online activities and time your child is allowed to have across their devices.
Bitdefender Parental Control offers digital help to parents and extra online safety to children.
Download and install the Bitdefender Parental Control app across your children's devices to easily manage and monitor their online activities using the Bitdefender Central platform.
Set up healthy, age-appropriate online habits for your kids and review their activity with the array of features tailored to promote a balanced digital lifestyle while preventing overuse and exposure to inappropriate online content:
✔ Content filtering
✔ Internet time management
✔ Location tracking
✔ Preset and customizable routines
✔ Rewards and Internet time extension
✔ Safe Search and YouTube restricted mode
Content filtering. Use the predefined, age-appropriate filtering categories to prevent exposure to inappropriate content or make your own adjustments to guide good online habits.
Internet time management. Control the allowed daily internet time limit across your child's devices and reward extra screen time for responsible online usage.
Location Tracking. Make sure your kids are OK even when they're not by your side. Track their location so you always know where they are.
Preset and customizable routines. Children strive when they have routines they can follow. You can set up Focus time, Family time and Bedtime routines to create a tailored schedule for each of these activities.
Safe Search and YouTube restricted. Remove explicit and harmful results from search engines and videos to ensure results are age-appropriate.
Note
Bitdefender Parental Control requires a VPN connection to provide Content Filtering and Safe Browsing functionalities.
The Device Administrator permission is also required to prevent uninstall.
Previous versions may require the Accessibility permission to monitor and manage browsing activity.
Like many others my experience of this app is that it simply DOES NOT WORK. When installed it blocks every application; including the system launcher, regardless of whether or not the application has been allowed or screen time is permitted. I've had to uninsall it completely from all devices just to allow my children to use their devices. Parental control is a highly contentious issue anyway, the behaviour of this app has only served to re-inforce my son's view that his parents should have no right to determine what, when, how and where he may use his devices. This has set my efforts back by at least 3 years. Until I read that a flawless installation can be achieved without the intervention of a support technician, [and I have yet to read a review of a successful assisted installation!] then I shall keep well away and will not be renewing my AV and security subscription next year.
For iPhone 12 mini an app is not tracking almost anything, only phone contacts of the child. Customer service response time is longer than a week with general information, which doesn't resolve an issue. Response usually would say that an app might not work for all models. If an app is not suitable for iPhone, which is widely used globally than what is the point to offer this kind of service.
I am a bitdefender user. I paid for the annual subscription. I thought your parental app would be better than google family link. I was wrong. 1. It can be uninstalled easily 2. It can be deactivated by turning off accessibility and using battery optimizer to not run it in the background. 3. It doesnt work - i tried setting it up on 2 gadgets. Both screentime and daily usage feature did not work. Even the locate feature doesnt work. I tried this on android phones running on android 8 and 9.
It simply doesn't work. I was told to uninstall and reinstall, no difference. Clearly there is a significant problem with this app. If you want to protect your child I cannot recommend using it. Very disappointing. I have worked in IT for many many years and if I produced something this flaky, I would pull it until I got it properly fixed.
