What Features Are Included?
Content Monitoring
EarthLink Guardian keeps an eye on texts, emails, YouTube searches, and more than 30 other apps and social media platforms for signs of issues like cyberbullying, adult content, sexual predators, drug use, depression, suicidal ideation, threats of violence, and more. Learn more about what can be monitored.
As a parent or guardian, you’ll get timely email and text alerts about the issues, plus recommended actions to help guide you through each potential problem.
When our parental control software finds something that could be wrong, we’ll alert you. That way, you can talk to your child and make sure everything is ok. We’ll take care of the monitoring, so you can keep being a great parent.
Screen-Time Management and Web Filtering
With EarthLink Guardian, you have parental control over when your kids can access the internet and what sites they can visit. You can even create custom profiles for each child to easily set different screen time schedules and allow age-appropriate access to a wide variety of websites.
Our web filter lets parents select which websites their kids can access on their devices. They can allow or block specific sites — or even whole categories like streaming services, online gaming, sexual content, and more. Parental control software has never been so simple.
Check-Ins
Make sure your kids have arrived safely at their destination with our check-ins feature. Now a forgotten text doesn’t have to turn into panic — simply check in without disrupting their activities.
