Questions
App Blocker — the questions parents ask
Does my child know Guardian is there?+
Yes. Guardian is visible on their phone under its own name and consent is recorded at pairing — it isn’t a hidden or secret tool.
Can my child get around a blocked app?+
Blocks hold on the device. You can also mark apps that must stay open no matter what.
