Features

Everything that matters. Nothing that doesn't.

You decide what's allowed. Paired Parent tells you when something needs you, and stays quiet the rest of the time. Where it has limits, it says so.

Texts & calls

Know when a message needs a parent.

Texts are checked on your child's phone, not on our servers. When one looks like it needs a parent, you get an alert with the conversation around it.
Only the people you've approved can text or call. Anyone new waits for your yes.
Quiet hours hold texts overnight, while the people you star can always get through.

Apps

New apps wait for your yes.

Anything your child installs stays closed until you say yes.
Give each app a daily limit or allowed hours, pause it, or block it. Add extra time when they've earned it.
Pause every app with one tap, or set a quiet time each night. The essentials, like the phone, clock and alarm, keep working.

Places

Hear when they get there.

Add the places that matter, like school, home or Grandma's, and get a note when your child arrives or leaves. Or find them right now with one tap.
Your child's phone watches those places itself and reports only arriving or leaving. No trail, and no map of their day.
Both parents see the same places, and each chooses whether to be notified.

Paired Parent is for a parent or legal guardian supervising a phone they provide to their own child. Every feature described here is enforced by the software on the child's phone; where a feature has limits, the page says so.

This site keeps a visitor log: the internet address the visit came from, the page asked for, and the time. Nothing on this site tracks you across other sites. What else we keep, and why, is on the Privacy page. The photographs on this site are illustrations, not photographs of real families.
