Managing screens

Your dashboard shows time spent per app and per social network. Reports help you understand your child’s digital habits and spot use that eats into sleep or homework.

You can set time-based usage limits and restrict access to certain apps at specific times, for example social networks during school hours or late at night. Set these rules with your child: they are better respected when they are understood.

Vigiloo filters inappropriate content such as violence, pornography or hate speech, according to the settings you choose. A list of dangerous sites is blocked automatically, and you can add sites to block or allow.

Vigiloo tracks time spent on online games and can restrict access according to your settings. Risk detection in gaming spaces and voice chats (Roblox, Fortnite, Discord) is among the upcoming features.

Location and what’s new

Vigiloo shows your child’s location in real time along with a history of their movements. Explain how you use it: it is a safety tool, not constant surveillance.

Yes, you can pause monitoring at any time from your parent dashboard, for example during holidays or as your child becomes more independent.

  • Trusted zones: arrival and departure alerts (school, home, activities)
  • SOS button: your child alerts you in one tap if they feel in danger
  • Online games and voice chats: risk detection in gaming spaces
  • Advanced screen time: time slots per app and remote pause

These features will be included in your subscription as soon as they are released.
