Yes - that's how you control everything, via the 'parent' Circle app on your phone.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you have an app to control the device on your phone. You cannot set a time limit for a certain game on Xbox but you can set a time limit for the Xbox.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can use your cellphone as the main device to control the other devices connect it to the Circle Home. You can do all that limit internet usage, apps, sites, and more.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, you can monitor/control the Circle remotely from an app.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes; in fact, a parent's smartphone app is the main means of interface to the Circle controls and permissions and is the easiest way (IMO) to make on-the-fly changes like pausing all Internet connectivity for a specific user (and ALL their devices), or granting a quick reward like extending an evening's bedtime or removing usage time limits for the day. Just be aware that the Circle device only controls/limits online traffic...if your kid has a game or videos on their phone that don't require a network connection to operate, Circle doesn't actually stop them from turning on the phone and opening an app/game...even with the Circle app installed on the phone in "Kids mode." But otherwise, the control you have from your phone is pretty flexible yet VERY powerful and quite extensive. I especially like the Bluecoat-proxy like category controls that allow you filter whole groups of websites and services (streaming videos, social media, streaming music, explicit content, etc.) without having to specify each individual site that needs to be blocked.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is easily to do for an kids tablet or TV access. You would need to install an app on a phone to track or manage the internet access.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it will do that when the phone is connected to WiFi on your home network. The kids still can use 4G or your minutes to connect, so be careful. If they're locked out of WiFi, kids are smart enough or will just let the phone connect and you may go over your phone plan. As for you home network, all items, tablets, phones, pcs, macs etc will be visible to you on your phone. Each kid will have an account set up by you and on your phone you can limit their access, reward them for good behavior with extra time and set bedtime hours. You do need to purchase a subscription, 3 month, 1 year or lifetime. AND make sure you figure out how to limit their cellular access with services like AT&T Secure Family or whatever your provider offers.
