How do I manage all the features on my child's smartphone?
Everybody knows smartphones aren’t just about making phone calls. In fact, as far as our kids are concerned, that’s probably their least important feature!
But it’s the other capabilities smartphones offer - from cameras, screen capture, voice recording, video live-streaming, etc. - that can get them into trouble. Features like these enable children to access and share inappropriate media and personal pictures, and to create and upload risky material.
Features you can disable using Family Zone:
- Cameras
- Screen capture
- Voice recording
- Video live-streaming
- In-app purchases
- Music, podcast and video downloads
You make the call

There is no doubt that protecting and regulating our kids’ online activity is one of the major challenges of today. I urge all parents to engage in their kids’ online world. Installing parental controls is a key step forward.
Internet Safe Education
Parents have a right to know where their children go and who they communicate with. Parents whose family have been devastated by online issues who now use monitoring or filtering software would do anything to turn back time . They have told me so. Family Zone is an essential piece of the cyber safety formula.
