What a way to destroy a relationship

Let me start by saying I’m not a parent. Now let me go into how this makes me feel completely violated on all terms. A teen I should be able to have more control over what I do, and yet this app limits everything. It makes me feel less like a teen and more like a child being babysat by my parents. Personally, I think I speak for all kids/teens when I say this app holds a fast-track ticket to distant relationships.

Use alternatives

This app sucks, don’t download!! It messes with your VPN connection and slows down your WI-FI. If you want to track your kids location just use Life 360. As for screen time just use the screen time limits in settings. No need for this app, DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!

Horrible App

This thing is restricting Safari (I cannot use it for more than a minute a day) and I can’t play games, watch videos, I can’t even text or call people past 9pm. For multiple days this thing was even restricting PHOTOS. Also if I don’t have someone’s phone number saved in my contacts, it blocks me from messaging the person (same with emergency services numbers, it won’t allow me to call the police) this app is harming my social life and online life, I can’t even talk to my friends without feeling insecure now, “Secure Family” is ironic because this app makes me feel more insecure about myself. This app has 1.2 stars for a reason.
