Blocks harmful content inside every app. Not just websites.
Apple Screen Time and Google Family Link block websites and apps. If it appears on screen, SafetyMode catches it and blocks the entire screen.
- Explicit images and nudity; blocked before they see it
- Cyberbullying language in messages; flagged and blocked
- Adult content in any app; including social media DMs and WhatsApp
- Addictive notification pings; suppressed at OS level
SafetyMode is the world's first technology to block harmful content at the app level; the safest, most complete solution for parents to protect their children online.

Apple Screen Time and Google Family Link block URLs or apps; SafetyMode blocks the actual content inside every app, in real time.
Every control, customised for your child.
No two families are the same. SafetyMode gives you granular control over every aspect; change it all remotely, at any time, as your child grows.
Exactly what they can see
Content filtering
Filter specific categories; explicit images, adult language, violence, gambling; across every app. Real content detection in real time.
Which apps they have
All apps approved by the parent
Every app must be downloaded by the parent; no new apps are accessible without parental intervention. Apps outside of their schedule don't appear; out of sight, out of mind.
When apps are available
App scheduling
Block games during homework. Disable social media at bedtime. Allow WhatsApp after school only. Different rules for weekdays and weekends.
How the phone looks as they grow
Display mode
Start with a distraction-free list. Move to a standard grid. Graduate to full Android on your terms, at your pace, when you decide they're ready.
Where they are; included with phone
Location tracking
See your child's location from your own phone at any time. Included with the phone; no Plus subscription needed.
