However, many users report issues with ineffective app blocking, confusing PIN setup leading to being locked in, excessive permissions, and difficulties exiting or uninstalling. The app may interfere with normal phone use and struggles with accessibility permissions on some devices. While the app has some good features and layout, these usability and security concerns prevent it from being fully reliable for many users. ### Pros - Allows parents to limit kids' screen time effectively and manage app usage. - Provides detailed usage information and supports managing multiple kids and devices from one login. - Easy to find specific configurations with a clear and simple interface (according to some users). - Includes many features that are free, and has a good layout appreciated by several users. ### Cons - Fails to block access to certain apps like Google Play Store and back/recent buttons effectively. - Confusing setup and exit process causing users to get locked in the app with PIN issues. - Requires many intrusive permissions including camera access without clear explanation. - The app can interfere with normal phone usage by hiding apps or making uninstallation difficult. - Accessibility and security permissions can be problematic, especially on some devices (e.g., Galaxy S21 Ultra with Knox). ## Similar extensions and apps - [Kids Lock: Kids Mode App](https://chrome-stats.com/d/parenting.safe.kidslock) — 5,961 users - [Kids Mode: Safe Child Lock App](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kidzoye.parentalcontrol) — 387,451 users, 3.99 / 5 - [Kids Mode: Parental Control](https://chrome-stats.com/d/ttb.com.kidmode) — 120,625 users, 2.29 / 5 - [kids Lock Screen](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.yincai.ychzzm) — 1,025 users - [Kids Mode 247 Parental Control](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.parentalcontrol.kids247) — 189 users - [Kids Mode - Kids Lock App](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kidsmode.kidslockapp) — 2,910 users - [Kids Mode: EasyKidsMode](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.grcyber.easykidsmode) — 2,766 users - [Parental Control: Kido Protect](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kidoprotect.app) — 213,161 users, 4.31 / 5 - [Kidden Parental Control App](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.applyft.kidden.parent) — 90,844 users, 4.23 / 5 - [Parental Control SecureKids](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.securekids.launcher_reloaded) — 440,823 users, 3.23 / 5 - [Parental Control - Kroha](https://chrome-stats.com/d/ua.com.tim_berners.parental_control) — 2,785,055 users, 4.62 / 5 - [Child Safety](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fproapps.childsafety) — 52 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.tabnova.aidashboard)
