Pause and resume

One tap stops the internet for a child, a single device, or everyone, for as long as you choose.

Bedtimes and limits

Schedules per child and a daily time allowance, with extra time when you allow it.

Content filtering

Block adult sites, social media, games and more per child, with safe search turned on.

New-device approval

A device joining your Wi-Fi for the first time waits until you approve it.

How it works

  1. A small program, the hub, runs on your home router and does the blocking.
  2. The app on your phone pairs with the hub once, on your home Wi-Fi.
  3. Away from home, the app reaches the hub through a relay. The connection is encrypted between your phone and your hub; the relay cannot read it.
