Groundbreaking screen-scanning safety technology
Why is content blocking the most effective way to protect children?
You can't watch your child's screen every second. SafetyMode does. Built into every OtherPhone, it scans what's actually on screen and blocks nudity, bullying and harmful content in real time, in any app, not just the social media ones.

The problem with just blocking social media
Most harm reaches kids beyond social media
of the harmful content we've blocked on kids' phones came through WhatsApp, a messaging app nobody thinks to restrict, not social media.
Where nudity gets seen
The pattern for bullying and harassment is even more skewed toward WhatsApp.
Most harmful content is shared from child to child. One child with access to it can spread it instantly, even through apps you think are safe.
How OtherPhone helps children stay safe
It's not only about content
65% of children show signs of phone addiction
That's roughly 3x higher than before the pandemic, driven by endless scrolling and notifications designed to keep them hooked. OtherPhone removes the attention grabbing menus as standard, and any app that isn't scheduled to be available isn't visible on the menu and all its notifications are blocked, significantly reducing screentime for kids and increasing focus.
Kids
25% of kids show very high scores, indicating serious problematic smartphone usage. And 68% pass the threshold overall.
Parents
Only 2% of parents show very high scores, but 25% still show signs of problematic usage.
