Daily Usage

A daily and weekly summary of your child’s screen time and the apps behind it, so the conversation is about the week, not the moment.

    Total time and the apps that made it up.

Questions

Daily Usage — 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.

How far back do the reports go?+

A daily summary plus a weekly trend, kept long enough for the comparisons to mean something.
