2025 Editor's Rating

Boomerang Parental Control offers a range of screen time features designed to promote positive behaviors and ensure your kids' digital wellness while using non-iOS mobile devices.

Please note that Boomerang Parental Control does not provide controls for iOS devices. Our iOS app is specifically designed to provide complete mobile device control for non-iOS devices (those that start with "A") from your parent iPhone or iPad.

About Parent Mode on iOS

  • Control your child's non-iOS devices (the ones that start with "A")
  • Manage device allocated screen time and set scheduled screen time based on your preferences
  • Set daily time allowances for individual apps. For example, you can limit social apps to 15 minutes per day
  • App controls allow you to allow, block, or encourage the use of specific apps beyond screen time limits
  • Approve newly installed apps (blocking is the default behavior) - receive notifications and review new apps before your child can use them
  • Review your kids' call logs and texting logs. Optionally, you can collect all text content
  • Phone call safety features include allowing phone calls only from your child's local contacts, blocking specific numbers, and always allowing important numbers
  • Receive notifications when inappropriate words are sent or received on your child's non-iOS device
  • Review YouTube app viewing history and searches - a popular and important feature for parents who want to ensure their kids are using the real YouTube

Boomerang Parental Control facilitates conversations between parents and their kids about device usage, good apps, bad apps, web browsing, video viewing, and more. It's a valuable tool that removes the stress and conflict surrounding screen time.

Notes and Tips

  • All commands and location updates require an internet connection (cellular and/or Wi-Fi).
