See what matters. Not everything. Nutcracker turns your child's YouTube and gaming activity into a clear weekly summary, written by AI and read in a minute. Not endless logs. Not secret surveillance. Just an honest answer to the question every parent has: is my kid okay? WHAT NUTCRACKER DOES - AI activity summaries. Your child's YouTube watch history and Steam gaming sessions, distilled into themes, shifts, and anything worth a second look. A week of activity in one short read. - Ask about your child. Chat with an AI that knows your child's activity and answers in plain language. "Has anything changed this week?" "What's she been watching lately?" - Social visibility. Follow the accounts you and your child agree to connect, and see activity summarized instead of scrolled. - SOS button. Your child taps once. You get an immediate alert with their location. Set different emergency contacts for each child. - AI Friend. A safe, age-filtered AI companion on your child's phone. You purchase it from the parent app, you set the filters, and you can see the conversations. Your child can request it. Only you can approve. - Every child, separately. Each child gets their own profile, connected accounts, SOS contacts, and reports. - Battery check. Know when their phone is about to die before they do. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install Nutcracker and add your child's profile 2. Your child installs the companion app and enters your pairing code 3. Together, connect YouTube, Steam, and any social accounts you both agree on 4. Reports start arriving. Read a week in a minute. CONSENT-FIRST, BY DESIGN Nutcracker cannot be installed secretly. Your child sees the app, knows what's connected, and knows what's shared. We built it this way on purpose. Monitoring your child knows about starts conversations. Monitoring they discover ends them. INSIGHT FIRST, LIMITS WHEN YOU NEED THEM Nutcracker starts with understanding, not restriction. When a limit is called for, set a daily limit on a group of apps or pause apps on your child's phone from your own, and your child sees the limit on their screen. Nothing is hidden. What no lockdown tool tells you is what your child actually watched, played, and cared about this week, and whether any of it should concern you. That's the part we built. BUILT FOR REAL FAMILIES Whether you're raising a curious 8-year-old or a phone-glued teen, the questions are the same: what are they into, has anything changed, are they alright. Nutcracker answers those without reading every message over their shoulder. PRIVACY Your family's data is encrypted and never sold. We don't share activity, location, or personal information with third parties. Consent can be withdrawn at any time, and disconnecting an account removes its data. SUBSCRIPTION Nutcracker is an auto-renewing subscription, available weekly or annually. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Your subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. AI Friend is a separate in-app purchase, available only from the parent app. Privacy Policy: https://www.meetnutcracker.com/privacy-policy Terms & Conditions: https://www.meetnutcracker.com/terms-conditions
