EVERY CHILD IS DIFFERENT
One size does not fit all.
One-size parenting controls do not work because one-size children do not exist. Your child has their own personality, interests, challenges, and level of maturity. SafetyMode adjusts to all of it.
WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS
No universal effects
Children's needs online differ by developmental stage; no single digital diet works for every child.
Ofcom, Child Development and Online Behaviour, 2024
Tailoring is protective
Parental warmth and autonomy support promote adolescent wellbeing, with positive effects in 91-98% of families, supporting controls tailored to the individual child.
“Universal Ingredients to Parenting Teens,” peer-reviewed review, 2022
Autonomy builds growth
Online safety controls should evolve as a child moves through developmental stages, supporting growing autonomy.
Ofcom, Child Development and Online Behaviour, 2024
Child temperament matters
How a child is affected by online content depends on the individual child and context, not age alone.
Orben & Przybylski, Psychological Science, 2019
THE CONTROLS THAT MAKE IT POSSIBLE
SafetyMode features the most customisable smartphone parental controls available anywhere.
A PHONE BUILT AROUND YOUR CHILD
Some example configurations.
The music-obsessed latch-key kid
Set it up as a music player that can call Mum and track them between home and school, everything else locked until you're home from work.
The curious coder
After homework, coding, AI and research apps unlock with strict content filters on. Exploration within a safe boundary and technology as a creative tool rather than a distraction.
The introverted young artist
Sunday afternoons: social apps off, art and design apps on until dinner. Protected creativity time scheduled automatically, no reminding needed.
The night owl gamer
Gaming and streaming apps switch off at 9pm on school nights, weekends are more relaxed. No more "five more minutes" arguments.
