If your child is over the age of 12 I would not recommend this. My parents have had this on my phone for 3 or 4 years now and each year it becomes more and more of a nuisance on my daily life. At first it wasn't that bad. But I got older and it became annoying. First issue for teenagers, you need permission to purchase things and Amazon is blocked. I have a job I can drive but I cant use Amazon? Second my parents are illiterate when it comes to tech. I've had Youtube banned for a year now and my dad still cant figure out how to fix it. and even if he did Youtube is stuck in child mode and he cant fix it either. Its very stressful to want to bond with your peers but something as simple as Youtube is banned. And finally probably the worst part the loops i have to go through to make a work email. My parents don't see a problem with giving your main email to potential employers. I would agree had i made my email at the same age they did. But they grew up before google and didn't make their emails when they were 9!! Maybe just maybe google I want to not give my email from when i was 9 to employers and colleges. I don't see any reason someone would use this app for teenagers. My parents are clinical diagnosed narcissists and couldn't care less about me or my future and if you don't want to be that to your teens don't use this. Maybe try a basic location tracker app. Not life 360 though your kids will hate you forever. Your children are human beings and disserve something as basic as privacy.
