The app works pretty well, although occasionally it won't communicate well with the child's device, such as when adding usage time, or changing modes. also, the endless nag screens to allow notifications or activate certain features are extremely annoying. Make a button to not remind again.

I paid the annual subscription, and for more than 6 months I’ve had to spend countless weekends reinstalling the app because it just stopped working—especially on weekends. I sent logs multiple times, asking for help. Support? Nowhere to be found. But hey, at least I could crawl on the floor reinstalling and reinstalling, right? If your goal was to throw support requests into the void and call it customer service—sarcasm fully intended—you nailed it.
