Parental App Lockdown Launched in Response to Surging Youth Mobile Device Use
New app gives parents the power to fully manage their children’s electronic device time, publishes parentalapplockdown.com
Ramona, California – February 12, 2018 /MarketersMedia/ —
Children ages eight through twelve spend an average of six hours per day on mobile devices according to a recent study conducted by Common Sense Media. The safe technology and media advocate goes on to point out the number surges to nine hours daily among teens. Though potential online dangers are ample cause for concern, lack of attention to homework, loss of family time and other related issues stemming from excessive internet stints also warrant consideration. In response to this development, Robin J. Keyser of Parental App Lockdown has launched a new mobile app designed to help parents take control of their children’s devices.
“Everyone spends a great deal of time online these days,” said Keyser, “but children and teenagers tend to have a hard time understanding when enough is enough. Though most parents try to keep a handle on things, the sheer number of devices in most households and the wide range of other matters demanding attention make it extremely difficult. We’ve developed a revolutionary solution to the problem, giving parents the power to manage all their children’s devices from a single user-friendly platform.”
Based on information from the parental app lockdown website, Android device users are able to set multiple phone and tablet lockdown schedules for homework, mealtime, bedtime, as consequences for negative behavior and any other reason deemed necessary. Parents are likewise given the option to add, delete or modify lockdown schedules at will. Only those with the preset pass code have access to the app, making it impossible for affected device owners to make unauthorized changes.
Prompts are shown on-screen detailing time frame and reason for lockdowns. Those with access to the app may enable or disable lockdowns in much the same manner as turning smartphone alarms on and off. Emergency calling functions are available throughout while calling and texting to and from certain contacts can be programmed via the app as well. Those interested may download parental app lockdown through the Google Play Store.
Concluded Keyser, “Children and teens tend to put up a fight when parents take away their phones; at the same time, not having their devices at all leaves them with few options should an emergency arise or they need to contact mom or dad. We’re proud to give parents back control of their children’s devices by offering a flexible, simple-but-comprehensive solution to a growing problem. We encourage parents to take charge and enjoy all the benefits of our new app.”
