Use of this app requires a compatible MTA router.

I wanted this app for parental controls on my child’s devices. I specifically wanted to be able to limit his usage. The on and off times can only be adjusted in 30 minute increments on the hour and half hour. You can set different times for weekends.
The app is buggy and was hard to get installed and is hard to navigate. If you make a mistake there’s no way to go back to correct it. When you finally DO get it installed, you get a list of what the tech assisting me said were “Mac” numbers. Each device your Wi-Fi finds belongs to one of the “Mac” numbers. You need to figure out which number(s) belong to the device(s) you want to control.
