Norton Family: Empowering Parents to Guide Children's Online Experiences

Norton Family offers a comprehensive suite of tools designed to help parents manage their children's online time and foster healthy digital habits. The platform provides valuable insights into online activity, promoting a balanced approach to screen time and device usage, both at home and on the go. Key features include:

  • Website and Content Monitoring: Stay informed about the websites your children visit and proactively block potentially harmful or inappropriate content, creating a safer online environment for exploration.

  • Screen Time Management: Establish healthy screen time limits for various devices, helping children prioritize schoolwork and minimizing distractions, particularly during remote learning or bedtime.

  • Location Tracking and Alerts: Utilize geolocation features to track your child's location and receive alerts when they arrive at or depart from pre-defined areas.

Additional features enhance parental control and supervision:

  • Instant Lock: Quickly pause device access to encourage focus or family time, while maintaining communication capabilities.

  • Web Supervision: Combine website blocking with ongoing monitoring to ensure children's online safety without restricting exploration entirely.

  • Video Supervision: Review watched YouTube videos (on PCs and mobile devices) and preview snippets to facilitate conversations about online content.

  • Mobile App Supervision: Manage app access on Android devices, allowing parents to control which applications children can use.

Time and Location-Specific Features:

  • School Time: Manage content access during school hours to maintain focus without interrupting necessary online learning resources.

  • Alert Me: Receive automated location alerts at specified times, providing ongoing awareness of your child's whereabouts.

Important Notes:

  • Norton Family and Norton Parental Control are compatible with Windows PCs, iOS, and Android devices, though feature availability varies across platforms. Parental monitoring and management can be accessed from various devices via mobile apps or the my.Norton.com website.

  • Location services require device activation and an active internet/data plan. Location supervision isn't available in all countries; check Norton.com for regional availability. Video supervision focuses on YouTube.com and doesn't extend to embedded YouTube videos on other sites.

  • The app utilizes AccessibilityService API to gather website data and prevent unauthorized permission removal by children.
