Parental Control App - OurPact

Needs to log in every time you open the app. Maybe a bug but takes a week to fix and no response by support.

Toimiva ja hyvä appi, ainoa miinus on se että lasta ärsyttää (koska aina kun appi menee päälle, sekoittaa lapsen appien paikkojen järjestystä) niin hän voi poistaa apin helposti omasta kännykästä.

Worked well for two weeks, then my kids learned how to get around it. What is the point of this app if you constantly need access to your kids’ phones in order to make sure the stupid app works? Then you could instead just take the phones away and not pay for the app. Disappointment.

First i tried the plus version (free trial) for a one single day and it wasn’t for me, so i changed it to premium. Now they charged both versions from my account 1.99€ + 6.99€.

Currently we have kids two iPads added to OurPact and OurPact is doing its thing easily and reliably.

Truly abysmal. Don't waste your time.

Loistava ohjelma. Saa puhelinhullut lapset tekemään läksyt ja syömään. Ainoa plussa olisi kun saisi etänä asennettua.

So it’s a good app to control what app they load to there phones. And a good way to block apps that they have. But it doesn’t monitor there texting like it says it doses. Our daughter was using a vape pen and had pictures of it. The only reason we found out was due to her getting in trouble in school. And her mother looked through her phone and found text messages of her asking friends to buy her these vapes. Plus among other things we found, and the app never side anything about her. We will still use it just to block unwanted apps but. For the price that is paid for it’s it’s kinda high. Try it but don’t expect it to do what it says.

I genuinely hate this app so much! This app is the main reason I can’t even trust my own parents anymore. Every time I see them with my phone, I’m scared they’re just gonna delete the apps I love because… the internet is basically the only thing that… keeps me going. The internet is my escape from depression and loneliness. I feel happy whenever I use YouTube, Instagram, and write stories and… seeing all of that taken away from my parents cause of this app just… it makes me feel like I know even know them anymore. It’s why I keep it on my person at all costs, and it’s also the reason why I have Nomophobia, fear of losing phones. I can’t even trust the people who raised me anymore because this app just brewed a lot of trust issues into my life since Middle School. Just… never use this app, it’ll only destroy your trust with your parents.

I have been trying to give this software a chance as I understand how difficult Apple makes it for OurPact to work properly. The customer support and help on their site is not helpful for such an expensive product. Intermittently one of my sons devices locks out because it stops being able to broadcast. Changing to a new account fixes the issue, but my child now has to use different accounts on different devices. Changing back to the same account breaks it again. Support has suggested clearing the phone and reinstalling the phone from scratch or just using multiple accounts. This seems to resolve after they come back from the weekend - and maybe something gets rest on their side. This app takes some getting use to and is hard to keep working on IOS devices. Apple seems to try to break OurPact in every new release.
