By providing valuable insights, Norton Family assists you in maintaining a healthy balance between your children's online and offline activities, whether they're at home, in school, or on the move. This tool keeps your kids focused on what truly matters.
- Monitor the Sites and Content Your Child Views
Norton Family makes the internet safer for your kids by informing you about the websites they visit and allowing you to block harmful or inappropriate content. This feature helps you stay on top of your child's online exploration and protect them from potential risks. - Set Limits on Your Child’s Internet Access
By setting screen time limits, Norton Family helps your children balance their online activities. This is particularly useful during school hours and bedtime, ensuring they concentrate on schoolwork and avoid distractions. With these tools, you can guide your child towards a healthier online/offline balance. - Stay Informed About Your Child’s Physical Location
Utilize Norton Family's geo-location features to keep track of your child's whereabouts. You'll receive alerts when they enter or leave designated areas, adding an extra layer of security and peace of mind for you as a parent.
Norton Family offers a suite of features to help you safeguard your child's online activities:
- Instant Lock
Encourage your kids to take breaks from their devices by using the Instant Lock feature. This allows them to refocus or join family time, like dinner, while still maintaining communication channels with you and each other. - Web Supervision
Let your children explore the internet safely with tools that block inappropriate websites and keep you informed about their browsing habits. - Video Supervision
Gain insights into the YouTube videos your kids watch on their PCs or mobile devices. Norton Family provides a list and snippets of these videos, helping you decide when to have important discussions about their viewing choices. - Mobile App Supervision
Keep an eye on the apps your kids download on their Android devices. You can decide which apps are suitable for them to use, ensuring they engage with age-appropriate content.
Time Features:
- School Time
During remote learning, Norton Family helps manage content access to keep your child focused on educational material, without cutting off internet access entirely.
Location Features:
- Alert Me
Automatically stay updated on your child’s location with customizable alerts. Set specific times and dates to receive notifications about your child's device location.
Norton Family and Norton Parental Control can be installed on your child's Windows PC, iOS, and Android devices, although not all features are available on every platform. You can monitor and manage your child’s activities from any device using our mobile apps or by logging into your account at my.Norton.com and selecting Parental Control. Please note that this requires an active internet/data plan and the device to be turned on.
Parents can access their child’s activity and manage settings by signing into my.Norton.com or family.Norton.com and selecting Parental Control from any supported browser on any device. Some features, like Location Supervision, are not available in all countries and require activation. Additionally, Video Supervision is limited to videos watched on YouTube.com and does not cover embedded videos on other sites. Mobile app supervision requires a separate download, and Web Supervision utilizes AccessibilityService API to monitor and control website access.
