Multiple problems
Constant problems with the profiles, not counting the time not limiting when it should. Not worth the money. I’m working on finding a new router. I shouldn’t have this many problems with a company as big as netgear

Constant problems with the profiles, not counting the time not limiting when it should. Not worth the money. I’m working on finding a new router. I shouldn’t have this many problems with a company as big as netgear
So I paid for premium yesterday and it is still in my subscriptions but none of the features are showing up now.
Very boring app if you ask me
I am unable to connect to my Orbi due to the Circle app blocking my access to everything. It is flagging all sites as malicious because the apps certificates are out dated. Do not download the Circle app. There is no way I can delete this from my system even if I delete the app. It is also blocking me from accessing the circle site and app which is crazy.
I downloaded this was enjoying how easy and great it was to be able block and control what my children watch on TV. The second day, the app crashed and now it’s stuck on the “enable circle on router” screen. No many how times I click “enable” this is frustrating. Please update this app or let us control parental controls another way. Thanks
When I paused my kids internet it would pause all their devices ex: ps5, laptop and burner phones but now even if I pause their account I have to go in and pause these devices individually and at times it still won’t pause. Is a joke of an app lately
This app has been nothing but a headache. I pay 4.99 a month for this app and every time the Wi-Fi goes does I have to start all over with app. The setup takes forever. It’s impossible to find your device because everything is listed as unknown device. I have to set up and assign devices all over again at least once a month. It takes hours to find device names and then locate them by their MAC address only to have the app stop working a few weeks later. There are much better parental control apps. Won’t be using circle again.
I set this up and, about an hour later, turned it off. It was slowing down the internet speeds in the house to the point that my wife and I had to switch over to the data plan to look anything up. Turned it off and, presto! Problem solved. I searched reviews on it and it appears that this is a common problem. Reading the complaints from the teenagers on here, however, is making me consider turning it back on again. That one child complained that mom could now see the sites he/she visited and was able to turn of internet access until her child did what he/she was told is absolutely glorious. Dear child, that’s the whole point. The fact that you are complaining about this suggests that you had issues in the first place, and that those issues correctly prompted your parents to take more control. You see, your privacy is not what’s important; keeping you safe is. If I learned that one of my kids had made these types of complains, the electronics would be gone and they would be spending their free time doing sudoku the old fashioned way; with a pencil and paper.
It is not recording the history of sites visited.
The app is buggy for my new phone and it is telling me to update the app even though it is on the latest but the app is very good to see what your kids are doing
