The original, award-winning Net Nanny™ parental controls is now available for Android. Give your child the freedom to surf the Internet without the fear of inappropriate content. Net Nanny is a custom mobile browser that becomes your child’s default browser. Manage which apps your child can or cannot use on their mobile device. Manage your child’s settings and devices, view reports, add users and much more from the web-based console. Simply follow the installation instructions and create a user profile for your child on his or her device. Use one of the pre-defined age-based user profiles or customize settings to include categories you create or specific sites you wish to block or allow.
APPLICATION MANAGEMENT
Show which apps are installed on the protected mobile device. Parents can block unwanted apps, see when new apps are installed, and even prevent new apps from running until approved.
AGE-APPROPRIATE FILTERING
Choose from among four pre-defined, age-appropriate user profiles for your filter settings: Child (ages 7 and under), Pre-teen (ages 8-12), Teen (ages 13-17), Adult, or customize your own settings.
18 FILTERING CATEGORIES
Each category can be configured to Block, Warn or Allow access to a page containing content in that category. Parents can also create their own custom categories.
STRICT SAFE SEARCH ENFORCEMENT
This app enforces the strictest safe search setting on all popular search engines.
ANTI-CIRCUMVENTION
Once installed, kids must use the Net Nanny browser. Other browsers cannot launch. Administrator credentials are required to uninstall the app. It also prevents most common task killers and app managers from stopping or uninstalling the app. SSL proxy sites are filtered. Strong uninstall and anti-circumvention tools ensure your child is always protected.
REAL TIME CONTEXTUAL ANALYSIS
Web pages are categorized in real time, including brand-new web sites and sites with user-generated content, such as comments or posts. With over 150,000 new web pages each day, traditional list-based filters cannot adequately protect your family.
SSL FILTERING
Filter HTTPS sites using real time contextual analysis
PROFANITY MASKING
Swear words are replaced with characters (@#$%) so web pages with otherwise-appropriate content can still be viewed.
REMOTE WEB-BASED MANAGEMENT
Administrators can manage any number of users and devices from a web-based console. Log in at admin.netnanny.com to manage your family’s settings and account. Setting changes are reflected on the device in under a minute. You can also manage your Windows, Mac, or iOS users from the same console and the user and family settings will work across all four products.
TIME CONTROLS (WEB BROWSING)
Set when and how long (per day or per week) that your child will be allowed to browse the internet using their protected Android device.
CUSTOM WHITELIST AND BLACKLIST
Create custom lists for sites that should always be allowed (whitelist) or always be blocked (blacklist). Parents can also permanently override a blocked site on the device.
WIFI AND 3G/4G/LTE PROTECTION
Your child’s mobile device is protected no matter what network they are using.
ACTIVITY REPORTS
Use the web-based Admin Console to view top web pages visited, blocked categories and alerts.
EMAIL ALERTS
Receive email notifications whenever a site is blocked, a block is overridden, or other events occur
