Norton Family allows parents to monitor children's online activities and block children from accessing inappropriate websites based on content type or blacklisting. With Norton Family, you can limit the amount of time your youngsters spend on the Internet and track their activities in real-time.
With Norton Family, you will be able to monitor the online activity of your children using your Norton Family account, including on mobile devices with Android or iOS (iPhone, iPad).
Children spend an average of 40 hours a month on the Internet. If you have children, it is important for you to know how they spend their time online. You can provide the same level of parenting that you do in other areas of your life. Norton Family lets you know where your kids go and what they do online. This way, you can protect them from online threats and teach them good online habits.
Key features of Norton Family
Android smartphone monitoring. Monitor how your kids use their phones. The Norton Family Mobile Edition app for Android lets you use your Norton Family account to monitor your kids' internet activity on their smartphones and block potentially dangerous sites.
Web control and blocking of sites. Track which websites your kids visit. An easy-to-read report of their online activity shows all the websites your kids have visited, as well as the online resources they have tried to navigate to. You can visit the websites your children were on and block certain sites or types of sites.
Time limit. With Norton Family, you can set limits on computer time for your kids so they don't spend too much time on the Internet. You can even restrict computer use during certain hours or days of the week.
Search monitoring. Norton Family tells you what your kids are looking for on the Internet. Track search words, terms, and phrases. You will learn more about your kids' interests on the Internet and know if they are deliberately looking for blocked or objectionable content.
Email alerts. The service notifies you by email when your children do something that is prohibited by parental control rules. Norton Family lets you keep an eye on your kids even when you're not at home. Parental Controls automatically send alerts for specific online activities, such as when your child ignores alerts or visits blocked websites.
