Best parental control app right now?

Need something I can use on my kids' tablets and phones. Screen time limits, blocking inappropriate sites, maybe tracking location for my younger ones. I want something that's not too invasive but I also need peace of mind. What are you guys using in 2024? Free options would be nice but I'll pay if it actually works.

I've been using Google Family Link and it's solid for basics. Screen time limits, app blocking, the works. It's not perfect but it does what you need.

Fair Squared is worth looking into. Not the cheapest but gives you more granular control. You can actually see what they're doing in real time.

We use Bark and I like it because it also monitors for concerning content and language, not just screen time. Peace of mind is worth the subscription for us.

How old are your kids? The answer changes a bit depending on the age range you're dealing with.
