CoView
CoView is a mobile + web parental controls app built around “review, don’t hover.” It captures a lightweight, privacy-aware activity timeline across a child’s device: app installs, new accounts created, risky search terms, and time-of-day usage patterns. Instead of constant screen recording, it generates short daily digests and flags only high-risk events (e.g., sudden new messaging apps, repeated late-night use, or contact requests from unknown numbers). Parents can set simple guardrails—bedtime lock, app category limits, and install approvals—then use guided conversation prompts to address issues without turning the home into a surveillance state. It supports multiple caregivers, shared rules, and an age-based mode that gradually loosens controls over time. Realistically, it won’t stop every determined teen, but it will reduce chaos and make oversight manageable for busy families.
