What Parents Say About Us

"MMGuardian gives my husband and I peace of mind that we hadn't found with any other app. The amount of oversight needed to protect our teenage daughters from online predators, inappropriate material, and cyberbullying was overwhelming for us. MMGuardian takes all of those oversights and compiles them into alerts so we don't have to hover over their screen time. If it wasn't for MMGuardian our kids wouldn't have phones or tablets. This app is amazing and I couldn't recommend it enough!"

DesireeOH

"I've been using MMGuardian for a year and a half or so. I purchased in hopes of keeping tabs on my teenager. The map tracker is dead accurate. I was impressed. I like how you can read every text message incoming or outgoing. I also like how you can see how much time spent on each app. I am now also to use the fingerprint login from my phone with this app! I am happy with what the app does for me and I am looking forward to seeing what else is in store for additions to the app!"

MonicaMO

"I don’t want parental controls that help me catch my kids going somewhere online they shouldn’t be, I want parental controls that prevent my kids from getting there in the first place, even if by accident! MMGuardian does that, and allows me to customize the control of my kids’ phones to their specific, individual needs. While it does give me complete visibility over their phone activity, and more than one “dinner table conversation” has been sparked by a text message alert, I can’t imagine allowing kids a phone without MMGuardian. I’ve never found its equal!"

ScottAZ

"I have been using the MMGuardian app for 2 ½ years now with my oldest daughter and we just recently set it up for my 13-year-old. It is a great app. It allows me to control what they see and do on their phones. I can see their texts to monitor what is being said. I can set time limits for how long they are on apps such as Snapchat or Instagram or block them completely. I am also notified if they are ever sent any picture that is inappropriate. I am very pleased with the MMGuardian app it has really made giving my daughters phones less of a stress."

ShshanaFL

"I have a 12 year old daughter who is suffering from depression and anxiety. I wanted to monitor her texts and phone calls to make sure she is doing okay. I found MMGuardian and it already had good reviews, so I thought I would try it. I have been using MMGuardian for 9 months now and I love it. I can track her location and monitor her texts, set rules on her phone such as time limits. MMGuardian has given me peace of mind."

MarieIL

"After purchasing a cell phone for my 14 year old daughter, we installed MMGuardian right away from the recommendation of a friend. A few weeks ago, I got a “priority” alert. I opened up the MMGuardian app on my phone and read the text that triggered the alert. It was a suicide threat from one of her friends. I was able to read the entire conversation which revealed that this young teen girl was in a very bad place mentally. I called her mom right away and sent screenshots to her. Her parents were able to get her the intense care she needed."

MMGuardian Parental Control App for iPhone: FAQs

How do I get reports for SMS messages when my child has an iPhone?

Message reports are still available when your child has an iPhone. You will need to install the MMGuardian Sync App to your computer. For full details, please see: Message Reports for iPhone

What is the difference between the Sync App and the Parental Control app?

The MMGuardian Sync App is different to the MMGuardian Parental Control app.

The Sync App, downloadable from the MMGuardian server, is required if you wish to get message reports from your child’s iPhone and should be installed onto your own computer. Once set up, when your child’s iPhone or iPad connects to the same WiFi network that you also use for your home computer, the app will collect the messages from your child’s device. These messages will then be available for you to view either in the MMGuardian Parent App installed on your own phone, or at the MMGuardian web portal. For full information please see: Message Reports for iPhone

The Parental Control app, available from the App Store, is required for the other functions such as location, web filer and web reports and should be installed onto your child’s iPhone or iPad.

I have an Android phone, but my child has an iPhone. Will this work?
