ScreenKin captures screenshots at a random interval, but parents can specify the average time between screenshots from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Because it's random, your child can't predict when the next screenshot will be captured.

Truple built the #1 rated accountability app in the Google Play Store. Truple was used widely by both parents wanting to help their kids and also adults needing help with online addictions.

As a result, the Truple app split into two. This app is used to help parents raise children that can responsibly use the internet.

Web filters give parents a false sense of security. They miss new sites, can be bypassed, and don't work across all apps and platforms.
