Norton Family Parental Control

Norton Family helps you manage your children's screen time and online activities.

Norton Family offers tools to encourage safe, smart, and healthy internet habits for kids. It also gives you insights to help promote a balanced lifestyle between online and offline time for your children and their devices.

Whether at home, in school, or on the move, Norton Family helps kids stay focused on what matters most.

• Monitor the websites and content your child views

Make the internet safer for your kids to explore. Stay informed about the sites they visit and block potentially harmful or inappropriate content.‡

• Set limits on your child’s internet access

Help your children balance their time online by scheduling screen time limits for their devices.‡ This can help them concentrate on schoolwork and avoid digital distractions during remote learning or at bedtime.‡

• Stay informed about your child’s physical location

Use the app's geo-location features to track your child’s whereabouts. Receive alerts when they arrive at or leave areas you've defined. (4)

Here are key Norton Family features parents can use to help protect their children’s online activities.

• Instant Lock

Help your kids take a break by locking their device, allowing them to refocus or join the family for dinner. You and your children can still contact each other while the device is locked.

• Web Supervision

Let your kids browse the web freely. Tools help you block inappropriate sites while keeping you informed about which websites they visit. (6)

• Video Supervision

See a list of YouTube videos your kids watch on their PCs or mobile devices, along with a snippet of each, so you know when a conversation is needed. (3)

• Mobile App Supervision

See which apps your kids have downloaded on their Android devices and decide which ones they can use. (5)

Time Management Features:

• School Time

Since remote learning requires internet access, turning it off isn’t an option. Manage access to relevant websites and content categories to help your child stay focused during school hours.

Location Features:

• Alert Me

Get automatic updates about your child’s location. You can set specific dates and times to receive alerts about the location of your child’s device. (2)
