Trackidz Parental Controls for Android
So far it's okay the location don't seem to be accurate information and I can't seem to find a help button to troubleshoot a issue like the contact's it's a blank screen & don't see anyone my child has talked to.
Best program in the store and best support. Although an option to automatically include any new installed program to the time limit will be great. Thanks.
I think it is great app and do its work... really good parent's assistant.. please keep the good work!
The best free app on the market. Does what it says it does. Thank you!
Useful. Could be better thi
Perfect for my family
After finally getting through to support, they were most helpful with assigning over my changed email address.
Constant reminders that are hours old. Wtf? Fix the notifications.
I've been using this app for about a year & love it. Anytime I've had any issues, they've been quick to help. It's easy to use & allows you to make fast changes if you need.
Can't log into on my kids phone. Won't work at all on my phone. Please fix asap or I will be changing tracking app.
Awesomeness!
Still waiting on multiple geofence locations. Also what about being able to see message and phone call logs. I don't need to see what was in message I will protect that much but being able to how many and frequency would be nice. Also can you hide on the kids phone that trackidz is running?
I am currently can not get logged into my parent portal, is there a way to reset the password?
Love the ability to set up a "Off Time" schedule. You can even set up two schedules. Now, if you could create the schedule, but not apply it (i.e., I've created a school schedule, but I can't turn it off for the holidays. I have to delete it, then recreate when school starts again) that would be awesome!
Excellent app, excellent customer support. Shoot em an email if you have issues. They replied to my question within a few minutes. Thank you! Alas the app is acting up again... Minus two stars.
It's a great app and works well for my kids. There is a way for the kids to uninstall though (apparently Google play requires this ridiculous flaw). I do love that it was a one time fee and that I can add all my kids on the same account.
This app is exactly what I was looking for. Most parental apps are subscription based, not this one, a one time fee is all it cost. I also enjoy selecting which apps to block and the ability to give bonus time for good behavior. I enjoy the choice to keep Google browser and not the app browser. The developer was also very helpful and quick to respond. Just remember to turn on location aware or the location finder will not work.
1. I cannot save "schedule names" (the schedule names disappear after just hitting the back button). 2. I cannot select "Allowed Applications" (the drop down menu is not clickable) 3. Although I do not select "Messaging" under "Activities to be blocked", everything else in my child's mobile including SMS and Call functions are blocked. There must be an option that my child shall be able to call any time. You never know what happens when. If this app intends to block everything in my child's mobile, then it is useless for me. I hope all parents feel the same. FYI: My device is Samsung Galaxy S7 running Android 6.0.1.
I don't like the fact that it can be erased. There should be a feature for kids to be able to make phone calls and texts to certain contacts that parents allow during blocked out time instead of being able to make phone calls to everyone.
Works perfectly for my 11 year old that is new to the big cyber world. Thanks!
Previously had flaws. Now worse. Will not track time on some devices. Allows controlled devices to work without time limits if data connection is lost. Will not see any browsers on controlled device, even chrome. Also does not see factory installed apps so cannot control them.

A couple of things that would be nice 1 multiple geo fence locations and is it possible to narrow down geo fence I know that this can test GPS location but I still would rather be safe than sorry. 2. Web history for marshmallow to be fixed. Everything else Is awesome
This app needs a little more development before I will reinstall it on my child's phone. Specifically, the GPS accuracy and notifications need work. The GPS has shown her on the other side of the city when she has been home all day and the emergency event (pressing the power button x8) and geofence notifications consistently take 10 to 15 minutes to get to me; this lag negates any benefit of those features.
Good idea poorly executed
Simple set up. Good concept. Testing it out on daughters device and still allows access to apps I selected as "blocked"
Please pot more options like social media monitoring and block Web site for example porn Web thanks
Under testing
Ok... the GPS isn't always accurate. We tested it, and instead of showing her at school, it showed her in a lake about 1 mile away. 2nd, and this is a big one, does not show Web browsing history. Says there's no history even after we set the preferred browser and made that her search icon. Tested that too. We also wish it would let us review text messages. Love being able to set a schedule for app use and see where she is (close), and the ability to see contacts. Still checking it all out.
Very good app. Got everything you need for a parental app, minus website screening. But for a one time payment it's a must buy app. Please check some typographical errors in your app.
I've enabled preferred browser on my phone but can still access any browser on childs phone. When I click on monitor, it just says no data available. Even if I set time out, I can still do anything on childs phone. I have a Sony Xperia M5 and my child has Samsung GT-S5301
The ads take up half the screen and the placement is horrible. Functionality is good.
Looking good.. can monitor his usage. Just need to trial a few more days b4 purchase.. wonder if can track child when there is no GPS.
Although an option to automatically include any new installed program to the time limit will be great. Thanks.
All good except iOS
Can monitor..of each app..i use kid shell and with this app its great control of my step bro 12 yrs old
Works on an older tablet when other apps wouldn't
Great app to help track usage, contacts, location, and lock down.
A really great app. I tried a few other parental control apps but Trackidz is the best. I specially like the Max time feature to control addiction of favorite games of my daughter. The design is nice and easy to follow. But my favorite is the Timeout feature and my daughter hates it. Every time she misbehaves or does not listen, I simply timeout her tablet. Wow. She has improved a lot after that. Thanks to the developer for this great app.

I think this is a really good app. The only things that are missing are: 1. Need to add more apps to the lock schedule(my children have a ton of apps for school!) 2. Need to add a lock to the child's app on there phone so you can only access the username password option with a password( this just screams easy back, by the kids btw). Overall I am thankful that you all took the time to come up with this!
