My Mobile Watchdog Review

my-mobile-watchdogMy Mobile Watchdog is a parenting tool that allows you to know every aspect of your child’s life. The older your child gets, the more private they become about their lives. This can prove to be a dangerous combination for some children. It is important that you guide your child, so they will not suffer lifelong consequences for the mistakes that they make.

As a parent, we can use all the help we can get. While technology can provide some negative things for our children, parents can use it to their advantage. You can’t be everywhere your child is, you can only hope that the values you instill in them follow them everywhere they go. However, children are very impressionable, and parents need to keep them in line.

Parental Controls

My Mobile Watchdog has over 20 different parental controls. Monitoring will be done from a remote location, and you will be able to sift through all the collected data by logging into the parent dashboard.

Here are some of the benefits of having parental controls.

  • Set up boundaries for your child. This program allows you to define how many calls or text your child receives or delivers, as well as setting up time restrictions. You can also turn off specific features of the phone, including internet and downloading videos or images.
  • The filtering tools make it easy for you to navigate through collected data, and find any mischievous behavior. These tools will also allow you to restrict applications and websites your child is allowed to visit.
  • GPS tracking will give you the ability to see where your child is at all times. This will give you peace of mind, and help you be with your child anywhere they go.
  • Receive instant alerts when restricted behavior is occurring. Alerts can be defined by you, and they can be sent to your mobile phone or email.
