When a report isn’t enough, look for yourself.

Works on
Android today, and honest about the rest.

Visible, not secret
Monitoring your child should know about.
Some apps sold to worried parents hide themselves and collect more than families expect. Guardian is built the other way: visible on the phone, consent-based, and limited to what you switch on.
- Visible, never hiddenGuardian appears on your child’s phone under its own name. No disguised icon, no fake “system service”.
- Consent is recordedYour child agrees when the phone is paired, and can see that Guardian is there. The arrangement is in the open.
- Nothing captured behind your backA live view or a snapshot happens only when you ask for it — Guardian doesn’t quietly record on its own.
- Answerable for the dataBuilt under India’s DPDP Act, with a named Grievance Officer. You can delete everything at any time.

Common Sense Media, 2025 Census — by age eight, one in four has their own phone“Les écrans ne sont pas l’ennemi. À bonne dose, avec le bon contenu et avec votre implication, ce sont de formidables outils. Le problème commence quand l’écran remplace ce dont les enfants ont le plus besoin — le jeu, la conversation, le sommeil et ce bel ennui qui fait naître la créativité. …”
Questions
The questions parents actually ask
Does my child know Guardian is there?
Yes. Guardian is visible on their phone under its own name, and consent is recorded when the phone is paired. It is not a hidden or secret tool.
Can Guardian open the camera or screen without my child knowing?
No. A live view starts only when you ask for it, Guardian is visible on the phone, and Android shows its own camera and microphone indicators.
Does it work on iPhone?
The parent app is on Android today, with an iPhone version on the roadmap. The child app is Android only. If your child uses an iPhone, Guardian cannot help yet — we would rather say so before you sign up.
Can my child uninstall it?
They can — and you will know, because Guardian tells you protection was switched off. We would rather say that plainly than promise a lock we do not have.
How long do you keep my child’s data?
Location is kept for thirty days, then deleted automatically. On-demand captures are stored for a short window and then removed. You can delete everything at any time.
Does Guardian read my child’s messages?
No — Guardian is not a message monitor. It shows which apps are used and the live view you ask for, and it leaves your child’s chats and calls alone.
Keep an eye on their phone, out in the open.
Install Guardian on your phone, set up your child’s, and see what you need to — with them knowing it’s there.
