Crappiest thing ever

This app is so annoying it takes forever to put your apps on and it puts it in a random order and not the one you like and it’s not accurate I will leave my iPad/phone or whatever off to go do stuff then I will come back and all my time will be gone.
This app is so laggy and awful. I hate this stupid crappy app

Worst App ever

Always show error, and can do nothing

Problems.. problems

It was working ok at the beginning, but now everything is blocked. I can’t control the Ipad of my son. Uninstall/reinstall and still have the problem. There is also some problems on the website too version. Poor quality.. Now my sons is lock in one app and can’t click on the button to disable it manually. This function is also not working…

Useless

Only for school assigned apple computers. Even then won’t load.

Same here

My children have gone out of hand due to coronavirus lockdowns and I wanted to control their screen time but the app was a disappointment.

Useless! Difficult to use

It was recommended by school. But everytime my son unlock the iPad, it takes so much time to make all apps available. When he presses pause, the time still goes on. Definitely won’t recommend to other people.

Makes no sense

Instructions not intuitive. While everyone is trying to learn at home, this is trash.

Error on code Line 14

Each time I Try to add a new device, I get an error on Line code 14(!!!), and it does the same error using either with my iPad or on my phone.

Disappointing

I thought this was just the app I was looking for. Signed up, tried to set up and then the only option given to me was to manage a school managed device. Look into it further and there is no option for home users. Bit of a shame and waste of my time unfortunately.

Nunca pude vincular el dispositivo

Solo perdí el tiempo, nunca pude vincular el dispositivo

Buyer Beware!! FOR SCHOOL DEVICES ONLY

Lots of hope but not for personal usage....
ScreenGuide no longer supports the management of family-owned devices - our focus is to help parents manage Apple devices owned by schools while their children are at home. If you want more information, get in contact with us here.

Developer please update to reflect who your target customers.

Renovação

Muito difícil renovar a compra do aplicativo!

Dificuldade para adicionar dispositivo

Não consigo adicionar dispositivo da minha filha. O app fornece um link pra abrir no safari, ao usar esse link não se chega a lugar nenhum

useless

this is so useless and unnecessary as well as that it doesn’t work as whenever I put it on the phone it says unblocked when it clearly isn’t

Only one option for monitoring..

If this can be explained or addressed I will change my review..
But why is the only option for device monitoring for a ‘school managed device’?

I don’t get it. I want to use this app, but that issue has stopped me in my tracks. Currently looking for an app that promises similar features...

Só há opção para instalar um tipo de dispositivo

Péssimo. Tentei instalar um dispositivo do meu filho e só há opção de instalar um dispositivo “school managed”.

Totally useless

Can’t link to the child’s device at all. Wasting of time.

Hate it

Every time my apps turn off they go out of there folders and I have to ask my dad every time I’m aloud to undo the app I shouldn’t be able to even give one star 😠

Confused...

I need to regulate my nieces screen time on an old phone of mine that she uses to play games. The only option I’m given as far as what kind of device I want to add is a school monitored one. Am I missing something? I read through the description before downloading and did not see if this is strictly for school devices and if it’s not, how do I select something different? I’m not sure if anyone will be able to respond to this or not but I would very much appreciate some clarification please. Also, I don’t know how to rate this, seeing as I haven’t been able to utilize this app at all yet but taking my confusion and the user friendliness in consideration, I’ll give 3 stars. Will update with a proper review if/when this issue is resolved.
- cheers

Bom programa

Cumpre o que promete. Para o iphone, deve-se utilizar o Configurator II e supervisionar o aparelho pois as funcionalidades aumentam. O processo é simples. Problema, ainda no iphone, é que o tutorado pode remover o perfil do ScreenGuide a qualquer tempo.
