28 Positive User Reviews for Qustodio Parental Control App

Won’t open

Not sure why but it won’t open for me. It looks updated but no matter what I’m not able to open it (on or off WiFi)

Grateful

Qustodio has been a blessing for my family. We homeschool and I have Qustodio uploaded to all laptops. It allows me to know how long they stream school. The amount of time they’re on allowed sites. It also allows me to protect them from inappropriate sites. I’m grateful and I have had no issues at all.

Outstanding company and responsive customer service! Do not hesitate to use this app!

We used questido for several years and it helped us to manage the time and content of electronic devices effectively. Their customer service is also very responsive in helping if needed. 🙏🫶

I don’t review.

I don’t usually do app reviews. But for this app I want to. It works! It blocks/controlls apps and websites on all devices on all connections (WiFi, cell). It’s not perfect but it does a pretty good job. Things I would improve: allow general household rules so I don’t have to setup the same settings for multiple kids (sleep times, school times, homework times, free time, blocked websites and apps).

Quesadillas

I like quesadillas

Mr Masawi

Without a doubt, this is the finest application. My mind is now serene, knowing that the children can undertake their homework without any undue distractions. Furthermore, I have the capability to effortlessly oversee their online endeavors and establish necessary guidelines.

Just “ok”

It gives me some insight to what my 10 year old is doing. I got it for monitoring content and limiting her time. The app allows her to exceed her time, and does not honor the shut off times (8pm). She can still access games and messenger thereafter, which causes me to have to address the times myself with her.

Great app! We’re suburban parents (college educated) with a 10 year old daughter. Our daughter is not on the ipad a ton, but more and more as she is getting older. This app is super easy to work. It’s been great for setting time limits and notifies us when she tries to access a website that’s questionable (not often). The best and most used feature (so far) is the time limit. It shuts off the internet when the time limit is reached. I’d say this app is exactly what we were looking for in terms

Monitor and control activities

This generation of children are born at a time when technology is at its peak and smart devices are getting more smarter and this automatically results in children are also getting smarter. Every day they explore new things so as parents its our duty to monitor their device activities so they can explore more safe searches. This app allows you to set a parental time limit so you can set how much time they can spend on the device in the whole day. Parental restriction feature gives you full contr

Tech-savy app!!

In today's digital age where technology is increasing daily, we are seeing many impactful changes in building mobile applications. Yesterday I came to know that we can track our child's online mobile activity by just installing an application in both in your and your's children device. Qustodio parental control app is a very useful and easy-to-use app. This free parental control app includes many features like I can manage my child device daily screen time limits, which is safe for my little chi

Messaging and Call Monitoring for iphone useless

So, I just paid the premium subscription in order to establish monitoring and rules on my child new iphone. When making the setup, I learn that in order to activate this feature I need to own a Mac computer, as I cannot do it from my phone. It seems there is no issues with android. I just wasted $55 as I need to look for a different option now.

Different languages

If you're looking for an app to help keep your kids safe online, look no further than Qustodio. The app's fantastic web filtering feature ensures that your kids only see age-appropriate content. It's easy to use.

Cool job

Qustodio is a must-have app for parents. The app's locator feature helped me find my kid when they were in trouble and was a lifesaver. I recommend this app to anyone with kids.

Free app

As a parent, I was worried about my kids, and due to the critical health situation of my kids, I downloaded this app to ensure that they were safe.

Likely the best

I’ve tried several other apps/programs but found their ability to know what is happening and limit what could happen lacking. Qustodio keeps everything in hand in real time-all searches and sites logged, times tightly controlled, and as long as the machine is connected to the internet, I can make changes on the fly-offer more time or lock it (laptop) down instantly. A game changer for me and my family. I highly recommend it-no need to look elsewhere.

iOS control less than expected

My child had an android and we loved Qustodio. Once they changed to an Apple device the controls were far less useful and location tracking doesn’t work consistently for iOS. I’ve found apps downloaded even though I blocked access to App Store within the Qustodio app. This no longer suits our needs and I’ll be looking to switch before my next renewal

Just ok. Not sure worth the $$$

I will agree with other reviewers that the app needs smaller time intervals like 15 minutes…otherwise, it encourages them to be on their phone apps at times they shouldn’t. If his phone won’t turn on until 20 minutes into his lunch, and still be on 20 minutes into the next class, what do you think will happen? One more day left into my short 3 day trial…I’m looking at other options.

11 Negative User Reviews for Qustodio Parental Control App

Not solid

I tested the app with some nasty language and it did not make a report to the parent app. But when sending “ok” it flagged the word “ok”. Also not all calls and messages are listed. Some do get listed and some don’t. This app does not feel secure as a parent.

Not that great

It will block sites you specify, bug usage isn’t obvious and you have to know the sites to block. Not very intuitive to see websites your kiddo is using

Lacking

- Does not allow requests to be submitted by kids on windows or macOS. - Does not create entries for embedded sites. (Problematic for kids in school as most sites have embedded content and kids can’t access it or request access for it, and it doesn’t show up in the app so you can give access even when it is denied.) - Blocks schools monitoring in specific education settings. - Unable to create settings for all users; requires editing settings one by one. - Overall, mediocre considering all the

Very unhappy

We had another parental control app on my son’s phone and iPad for years, but it was starting to glitch so I did some research and found Qustodio. In the last month since we paid for the premium plan, my son has been able to easily find the app and delete it. That was not possible on the other apps. I’ve tried to contact the customer service and even when I log into the main site, to contact them through keep in touch it says I have an invalid password, even though it shows my name in the top ri

Internet connection

I don’t like that I can’t connect the device to my own internet once connected to this application. I like my internet controls easier than this app but this is nice when not on the internet.

Does not provide sufficient control of Chromebook app installations

Feature that allows for time control of applications applies only to browser accessed games and apps. It doesn’t apply to locally installed programs. This limitation was entirely unclear at time of purchase. Misleading.

Too much to keep phone secure

I started using this app to keep my daughter’s phone usage and restrictions more accurate than the Apple family screen time. She’s able to delete the app or somehow work around the restrictions. This is with the paid premium subscription. Disappointing.

Fix app

Please fix app I’m unable to access my app rn have tried everything on my

Can’t actually block apps just internet

I got this to work on my kids iPhone and Chromebook. Trouble is the iOS version can’t actually block apps just their internet connection. This means apps with offline connect continue to work etc. back to Apple screentime!

Kid hacks with new update

Can’t keep the profile on his iPad. I’m in tech and this shouldn’t happen; kid is handy with a keyboard. Reinstalled on his device 3x. Immediately removed. VPN can be turned off on his end, which shuts down the MDM immediately. Pls fix or refund.

Beware

If you are thinking of canceling make sure to do it before the auto renew date otherwise you will have to pay for the whole year anyway. I didn’t receive notice of the auto renewal and canceled after my daughter got a new iPhone. Unfortunately it happened to be a few days after the auto renew date and I was charged for the whole year anyway. No refund for the remaining 11.75 months of no service. Device was also glitchy and easily disabled by my kids.
