SAN DIEGO, Sept. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Parents now have the ability to remotely control their children's internet and mobile app usage on Apple mobile devices regardless of connection mode: home networks, public Wi-Fi or 3G/4G mobile internet. The advanced features of the curbi parental control system help parents to curb, block and watch their children's activity on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch mobile devices. Parents can use curbi to teach their children healthy habits by setting and enforcing rules, as well as timeouts.
The curbi parental control system is an advanced yet flexible service that is easy to use and quick to install on a child's iOS 6 or newer device. Once installed, the mobile device can be controlled by parents or guardians from any Web browser or via the curbi app on iOS devices. Developed by a team of parents in response to their own frustrations with enforcing mobile device rules with their children, curbi is designed to be a positive parenting tool to help set healthy screen time and Internet content and app limits. curbi is free for a 14-day trial from http://www.curbi.com or the App Store with a monthly subscription of $6.99.
Key curbi features
The curbi system can be used to manage unlimited iOS devices and performs three key roles:
-- Curb: Allows parents to curb their child's time spent online, including
limiting usage of popular social media, TV and video sites, as well as
specific websites access, allowing parents to set boundaries on what
their children can do and when.
-- Block: Always blocks adult and other inappropriate content and makes it
easy to block broad categories such as advertising sites or specific
problem websites. Parents can also restrict multiple features on their
children's device such as in-app purchases, installing apps and the
camera.
-- Watch: Enables parents to watch their children's internet usage with
detailed reporting including weekly email reports that show web usage
and recent app installations.
Quotes:
"Our aim with curbi is to provide parents with the most helpful and effective tool to ensure the responsible use of mobile devices by their children. Setting and enforcing rules around screen time is a huge challenge for parents today." - Justin Magraith, curbi Product Director
"Families have been hit with a tsunami of technology in recent years and it is becoming increasingly challenging for busy parents to ensure that their children's usage of devices is safe, appropriate and not excessive. Tools like curbi do appear to offer some safeguards and backup for parents in helping to reinforce the agreed boundaries." - Maggie Dent, author, educator and parenting and resilience specialist
"Parents are finding that the issue of responsible use of technology has jumped to the top of their inbox. Through our SafetyNet® program, we encourage parents to take control of the technology in their kids' lives in order to keep them safe online and to teach healthy tech habits." - Sara Napoli, CEO, San Diego Police Foundation
