It works

You need this app for school laptops of high school teens. I did trust my kids. But they wanted to chat online in class. They wanted to download games in class. It lets you block installed apps and block websites and categories of websites. It lets you monitor screen time and set curfews. It lets you see what words they use to search. Ideally as your kids get older you can lessen the controls but for early teens its a must. Over time you move to warning instead of blocking. Ideally, you should not have your child be an admin user of the laptop you monitor.

Just So Terrible

It limits my child’s laptop during the school time even learning materials. Only way is to not use Norton at all… I feel I wasted money on Norton.

Supervision can be easily turned off in child device

I realised my child can easily turn off Norton Family supervision in settings by not allowing it to appear on top of other apps. It makes Norton completely useless. Norton kept sending me messages that supervision over other apps was turned off on child device but no explanation what that meant. It took me forever to find out what happened.
