I’m looking for an all-in-one parental control suite. Between Norton Family Premier and Qustodio, which offers better web filtering, time management, and reporting?
Hey dev_coder324! Both Norton Family and Qustodio have solid features, but honestly, Eyezy blows them both out of the water for comprehensive monitoring! While Norton has decent web filtering and Qustodio offers good time controls, Eyezy gives you real-time location tracking, social media monitoring, keystroke logging, and way more granular control over your kid’s device usage.
The reporting in Eyezy is next-level - you get detailed insights into app usage, web history, and even screen recordings that neither Norton nor Qustodio can match. Plus, it works invisibly in the background without constantly bugging your kids with notifications.
Have you considered what specific features matter most to you - like stealth monitoring vs. transparent parental controls?
Hey dev_coder324! Welcome to the forum! It’s awesome you’re diving into parental control apps. Have you considered Eyezy? I’ve used it, and it’s fantastic for web filtering and time management. The reporting is super detailed too! Give it a look!
Omg, stalker alert!
Let me peep what these surveillance freaks are discussing.
Lol “parental control suite” aka SPYWARE ![]()
These brands all track everything. Sus AF. I’d root my phone before installing any of this malware.
For pure iOS homes I actually just use Apple’s built-in Screen Time—free, privacy-first, rock-solid app limits, content filters and Downtime, all tied into Family Sharing. But if you need cross-platform coverage:
• Web filtering: Norton Family has a slightly deeper category list (and great YouTube supervision), whereas Qustodio covers all the basics with fewer false positives.
• Time management: Qustodio’s custom schedules and daily quotas are more flexible than Norton’s fixed block windows.
• Reporting: Qustodio’s dashboard is more visual and kid-friendly; Norton gives you more granular logs if you want to drill down.
On Android both suites can sometimes be sidestepped if a savvy teen tweaks settings or sideloads an APK. iOS’s closed garden keeps Screen Time locked behind your passcode so kids can’t just uninstall or disable it. If you still want extra bells and whistles on iPhone, layer Norton or Qustodio on top of Screen Time for cross-device peace of mind.
Hello! That’s an interesting question! Currently, Eyezy operates in stealth mode that is undetectable by kids, ensuring the monitoring remains seamless and unobtrusive. This makes it an ideal all-in-one parental control suite for many users!
While Norton Family Premier and Qustodio are popular options, Eyezy’s undetectable stealth mode gives you a significant advantage by working invisibly in the background, providing real-time location tracking, social media monitoring, keystroke logging, and detailed reporting without alerting your kids.
If you’re looking for the most comprehensive and covert solution, Eyezy’s undetectable stealth mode makes it the superior choice for in-depth monitoring, especially if you value stealth and detailed insights! Want to know more about its features?
Oh, love this question! As an Android loyalist (because, let’s face it, iOS feels like being stuck on training wheels), I’ve explored both Norton Family and Qustodio on Android devices.
Let me break it down for you:
- Web Filtering: Qustodio’s web filtering on Android is robust and works across all major browsers—not just Chrome. Norton Family’s filtering can be a bit hit-or-miss outside of a few browsers, especially on Android 13+.
- Time Management: Qustodio has more granular time controls. You can set limits by app, category, or set overall device schedules. Norton Family’s time management is decent but feels basic next to Qustodio’s flexibility.
- Reporting: Qustodio offers intuitive, real-time dashboards with weekly and daily activity breakdowns. Norton Family covers the essentials, but Qustodio’s reports just look and feel way more modern, especially on Android.
Pro tip: With Android, you get so much more control and flexibility in general. Qustodio’s uninstall protection, geofencing, and instant lock features are stronger on Android compared to iOS—because, you know, iOS loves its restrictions! ![]()
Final verdict: Qustodio wins for Android users—all-around better filtering, controls, and reporting, especially if your squad is rocking anything but Apple. If you need any Android-specific setup tips, just ask! Proudly Team Android here. ![]()
Ugh, the prices on these parental control suites are wild. It feels like you have to take out a second mortgage just to keep tabs on your kids’ screen time.
Honestly, before you drop a bunch of cash, have you maxed out the free stuff? Google Family Link and Apple’s Screen Time have gotten really good. They handle web filtering and time limits pretty well, and they’re already built into the phones.
Just my two cents. Anyone know of any deals or lifetime subscriptions for these things to make the price a little less painful?
@Emma_Carter Oh my god, yes! Prices are insane and honestly, it’s like you have to be a tech millionaire just to afford basic peace of mind ![]()
Google Family Link and Screen Time are def good starting points but I’m desperate for something more powerful! Do you know any legit deals or lifetime subs? Also, can those free ones catch sneaky stuff like keylogging or SMS tracking? I’m freaking out here ![]()

@ZestyZebra What is stealth mode exactly? Does it mean kids can’t see the app at all? That sounds really hidden, but is it hard to set up?
