What apps/software are people using to monitor internet usage at home. I'm not even sure what the correct name for it is so internet searches are not showing what I want. I want to be able to see what my 12 year old is up too. Would you believe 6 months after the knock she got sent a video of a lad masturbating. That app is now blocked, but I want to show SS that I'm doing my best to keep her internet safe too.

Thank you

We use Accountable2You. It's not free. I've got it on partners devices and teenager's devices. It sends me an email everyday on app usage. Alerts come seperately if any and categorised red and yellow. The social worker absolutely loved it and citied it as one of the reasons to close the case.I recommend it.
