Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Circle with Disney's ease of use, simple setup, and effective content filtering capabilities. Many appreciate the device control features, allowing for monitoring and management of children's internet usage. However, some customers find the price to be a barrier, and a few experienced performance issues, particularly with multiple users. Concerns were also raised regarding children's reactions to screen time limits imposed by the device.

    Got this to be able to set time limits for my kids internet use. Love being able to turn it off and back on at certain times for school nights and weekend nights. I really like the pause feature, just hit the pause button and you can pause all internet or just the internet of 1 child. It doesnt really tell you where they go on the internet, just a general catergory of where they go

    Anything that makes my kids this mad must be doing its job. You can filter web sites, set time limits, and set bed times. It has a battery so if they unplug it it keeps on working. Very effective in managing electronic time while they are home.

    I love it. It does the filtering per my kids ages. The time limits too. But my ever smart 16 year old found a way to override the filters. There is a dos prompt that they can used.

    As most parents with kids at home we struggle with limiting screen time and the content they see. This device allows parents to control all of that with a simple app. It's a must have.

    I found the Circle to be a bit hard to set up, (you may need to disable 5G bands on your router). Once setup, the device functions great with little to no impact to bandwidth noticed. My only annoyance is that it only shows the MAC address, and for many devices you have to look at the device details to find the address. It would be nice if there were a way to search for a MAC address or IP Address when looking for a device.

    Must have for the family. There is way to much junk on the Internet to allow our kids to roam around without protection. Circle is easy to set up, works amazing and makes me feel safe as a parent

    This is working exactly like we had hoped. I am giving it only 4 stars because on filter mode Edge will not work. This should be fixed. I just have to use Chrome to search on. This means Cortana will not work when a filter is on. I am sure it is an easy fix so I will wait for an update. This also does not work on my windows phone to operate it.

    My son and his friends are not too happy about this device, but We are as parents! This product is PERFECT to monitor and block internet activity within your home. What I like best is you can block by device or the whole house. You can also set up levels of maturity and what access a child has. You can put bedtimes on it, so it automatically turns off when you want it too. After a few months, the boy is used to it and is not fighting us anymore when we shut it down. They do have a data piece they have recently added, but they charge for it, wish it was included as that can get expensive... So I have data blocked at our carrier level for free....
