About this app

Bitdefender Parental Control offers digital help to parents and extra online safety to children.

Download and install the Bitdefender Parental Control app on all your children’s Android devices.

Download and install the Bitdefender Central app or log in to the Bitdefender Central website on one of your personal devices to set up healthy, age-appropriate digital habits for your kids and to get reports on their digital activity.

What you get:

✔ Safe Browsing
✔ Manage Applications
✔ Location Tracking & Geofencing
✔ Safe Check-In
✔ Screen Time


Safe Browsing. Select the content categories you want to keep away from your children from a predefined list. You can also manually allow or block specific URLs.

Manage Applications. Choose the applications and programs you consider appropriate for your children. You can view your kids' app usage history, and compare it with the way other kids their age spend their time online.

Location Tracking & Geofencing. Make sure your kids are OK even when they're not by your side. Track their location so you always know where they are. Take a laid-back approach and get notified when they enter an area you mark as Restricted.

Safe Check-In. Save your kids the dread of an extra phone call - let them tell you they're OK with Safe Check-in.

Screen Time. Decide how much time your kids spend on a certain device, and when. Help them build healthy habits, both online and offline.


Please Note!
This app requires the Device Admin permission to prevent uninstall and uses the Accessibility service to monitor browsing activity and apply the allowed browsing categories rules set by the parent.

This is the most disappointing thing about getting a Bitdefender subscription. Everything else seems to be really good, but evidently parent controls are an after thought.. The app on my kids device blocks everything regardless if it has permission to be used. I wish this was more like XBOX, that a painless process to give access to a specific app/game..I was really looking forward to the location alerts that would have been helpful..as it stands I had to uninstall the app, to get anything to work.

Worthless, huge disappointment, can't access child location can't block apps. I love Bitdefender but this app is a 0 zero, it is unable to do the two most important things, locate the child and block apps. 👎 I won't be renewing this. There's a reason it's only two stars, and honestly it's not 2 stars, it's ZERO stars. Do better Bitdefender, you're got a lot of disappointed customers.

Terrible...Frustrating... It works a couple of days, then it gets glitchy an starts blocking kind of random apps and websites, a real pain. The worst part is not been able to fix it or recover it...even try to uninstall is almost impossible and it leaves "worms" and you need to use hard force to remove it. Listen the reviews and avoid the app, look for other options if you need something for what it promise, avoid the pain. I will, as soon as able to remove it from all my devices.... *(
