A calmer daily rhythm

Your rules, without the daily negotiations.

Choose blocked apps or an allow-only set, selected weekdays, and a start and end time. ChildPhone applies the encrypted rule and provides a visible temporary exception.

Safety with deliberate limits

Useful signals. Deliberate limits.

Safety language alerts

On-device checks can recognize parent-selected safety phrases in readable incoming notification previews from explicitly selected apps.

See the latest encrypted sample with its timestamp and freshness, or review arrival and departure alerts. The child sees when sharing is active.

A phone that can still be a phone

A promise children can understand

The phone should never feel like a secret spy.

  • 01
    Always visible

    Location sharing and monitoring status are clear on the child's phone.

  • 02
    Process on the device

    Safety language checks happen locally whenever the supported channel allows it.

  • 03
    Keep less

    Safety alerts remain content-free. Optional Managed notification previews are separately approved, encrypted, capped, and deleted after no more than seven days.

Android first

From new phone to family-ready in a few guided steps.

  1. 1
    Create your parent account

    Your account handles billing, support, and family membership. The browser creates the separate family encryption key locally.

  2. 2
    Prepare the phone

    Follow the guided reset and visible Device Owner enrollment.

  3. 3
    Choose your boundaries

    Pick apps, places, schedules, a Home layout, and visible safety phrases.

Good to know

Questions parents ask first.

Is location tracking hidden?

No. The child always sees that location sharing is on. The parent dashboard labels every retained sample with its time and freshness, and place alerts can reduce repeated map checks.

Can it read every chat app?

No—and we will never pretend it can. The Play child app keeps safety alerts content-free. The sideloaded Managed app can optionally retain readable incoming notification previews from WhatsApp and supported Messages/SMS apps for up to seven days, but it cannot read outgoing messages, hidden previews, earlier history, attachments, or content an app does not expose.

Does ChildPhone store conversations?

Safety alerts never store message text. On the sideloaded Managed app only, a parent can request an optional encrypted seven-day notification-preview history for WhatsApp and supported Messages/SMS apps. The child phone must visibly approve it, and the relay cannot decrypt the retained previews.

Will it work on a phone we already own?

The first release targets compatible Android phones. Full device controls require a guided factory reset and Device Owner enrollment.

Start with the phone they need now.

Give them room to grow—and yourself room to breathe.
