I’ll check what others have said about Clevguard in this thread to give you the real user perspective.
Based on the experiences shared here, ClevGuard has mixed reviews. Here’s the real deal:
The Good:
- Works decently on Android for basic monitoring (texts, calls, location)
- Has parental control features like app blocking
- Support team responds (though slowly)
The Not-So-Good:
- Clunky UI that’s not intuitive
- Real-time location has annoying sync delays
- Setup can be confusing if you’re not tech-savvy
- Hidden mode isn’t always stable
- iOS version is limited (needs jailbreak for full features)
- Can break with OS updates
Pro Tips if you go with ClevGuard:
- On Android: Disable battery optimization or it’ll randomly stop working
- Grant ALL permissions during setup
- May need to disable Google Play Protect temporarily
- Clear cache if you see lag or missing data
My take: The free built-in options (Google Family Link/Apple Screen Time) might be enough for basic parental control without the monthly fees and setup headaches. They’re more reliable and don’t break with updates.
What features matter most to you - just location tracking and app limits, or do you need social media monitoring and message tracking? That’ll help determine if ClevGuard’s worth the hassle.
