Norton Family

I am a child who’s strict parents installed this on their phone. I don’t understand why this exists. As one of the previous reviews stated, a parent-child relationship should be based around trust. Monitoring everything they do on their phone is an absolute trust breaker. I should be able to decide when to tell my parents certain things, they shouldn’t find out by looking through my personal items. Children deserve privacy as well. This review was kind of rushed so I apologize if it isn’t the best quality.

Since I have installed this app on my son’s iPad, he is not able to access the local network printer through AirPrint. In local network privacy, the app has not requested local network access. Not sure if that’s the bug.

This is the lowest rating I have ever put on any app. Coming from a 13 year old 7th grader this app is so bad that sometimes I BEG my mom to take it off my devices. It has got to the point that even my dad has stared to talk to my mom to uninstall this app and for good reasons. For example this at a certain time it shuts off all apps except for Safari, text, and call. That is not even the worst of it the worst is the notifications. My parents have been absolutely bombard by emails, texts, and notifications ever since we got this. I would say the only good part about this app is you can check the YouTube and other videos that the users watches. But it is literally just a waste of money because you can just go into history on mobile or pc and just check it there. Another bad part and for me the worst part for me is when you are trying to play a game like Fortnight or Roblox and a timer telling you how much time you have left just appears in the middle of you screen. It is genuinely so annoying and I have hit my keyboard a few times because of it. Also maybe the worst part is you pay for this thing. Finally I have seen the mobile app that my mom has to control it and it looks like a 21 year old with no experience tried to make a website for it. It is like trying to do it exponents on your hand with a stick. It is so complicated and even when you go to the help section it does the opposite only making it more confusing. I know I have been ranting about this but it is so genuinely bad you mine as well check history and time yourself. If you read this whole thing thanks because I have a hatred for this app and I hope you don’t ever experience this. Have a great day and thanks again.

Some people might hate this app, but I think it is really good. My dad put this on my phone, so now he can limit how many games I can play. This helped me do better in school. Thank you Norton 💯🔥🔥💯

I know others left reviews but no not get the app!! It is not easy to uninstall, messes everything up if you search for pictures you can’t see them even on social platforms, if you have an iPhone you have to log into your Apple ID every time your parents turn off your phone, you can’t really do anything with this app, messes up your WiFi and everything, protects the most useless’s things ever, just don’t bother getting the app for your kids or anyone.

This app takes apps Off my homescreen and just spews them back out, unorganized and I have to spend 30 minutes every couple days fixing my screen, how do I solve this

I can’t access any apps except for the ones come with your phone when you buy it (excluding safari). Such as all Apple apps. I can’t FaceTime either, nor can I use the Norton app for web browsing, like I was instructed

I had gotten this app and my parents thought oh it would be a good idea but nope It literally deleted all my apps that were child friendly but they deleted procreate and other apps it’s so annoying

I got this app for my two daughters and son so I could monitor what they were doing on their phone. Now they can’t go on any apps I allow them to go on like YouTube, Pinterest, Roblox, and even TEXTING. They can’t text there friend without the app saying they can do it. When they go on Roblox it will kick them off and say they “Can’t play the service.” I don’t recommend getting this app if you let your kids use any of the experiences.

All other Norton apps I am fine with protecting your own personal info but this takes it way too far to the point where you cannot access a single app on the phone including a camera. Sometimes when the apps are supposed to come on they stall or just don’t come back. On my iPad they never came back on so we had to wipe the entire thing and sign into and create an entire new Apple ID account. Plz don’t do this to your child
