Thoughtful details for everyday care

For everyday
“what if” moments.

From the journey home to time on a screen. Get more context, stay in touch and support your child — from one app.

Know where your child is

Location, route history, geofences and guidance along a route you draw. Understand where your child is and how they got there.

How it works

Stay close by voice and video

Family and private chats, voice messages, voice and video calls, conversations with up to 5 participants and a walkie-talkie. A convenient way for the whole family to stay in touch.

How it works

Respond to a simple signal

SOS, “I’m OK”, “Call me”, “Pick me up” and a request to be accompanied. A child can say what they need, and a parent can acknowledge it.

How it works

Hear and see the situation

Live audio, a switchable camera, photos, screenshots, and saved audio and video. Get the context you need through features you have set up and permitted in advance.

How it works

Help them put the screen down

App usage time, daily limits, schedules, and app and website blocking. Your child can request extra time, and you can decide whether to allow it.

How it works

Bring the whole family together

The base plan includes 3 child and 2 adult devices. Profiles, connection management and widgets for both roles keep the essentials close at hand.

How it works

Use the features with a legal representative's involvement and adult participants' consent. Microphone, camera, screen and location features require permissions. FamilyGuard does not replace emergency services.

More ways to understand, connect and help — together in FamilyGuard.

Walkie-talkie: reach out by voice

Speak to your child through the family connection and get a voice reply. Useful when you need to agree quickly on what to do next.

A simple way to reach your child.How it works

A route you draw yourself

Draw the route from class to home and start route guidance. FamilyGuard compares your child’s position with the route and helps you notice a deviation.

Extra attention along a familiar route.How it works

A text-message backup for location

Set up the backup in advance so the phone can send an encrypted location point by SMS if normal delivery is unavailable. It requires a mobile network, a SIM and permissions.

An extra channel for important information.How it works

Phone limits with family contact

When you temporarily restrict the phone, the family communication options provided by FamilyGuard, calls and SOS remain available. Set boundaries while staying in touch.

Your child still has a way to reach the family.How it works

Set up SMS backup in advance; mobile operator terms apply. Device capabilities and permissions affect feature availability. See Help for detailed setup.

Getting started is simple

One family.
One app.
Three steps.

The same APK for a parent's and a child's phone. Choose a role when you launch the app.

Download FamilyGuard

For Android 6.0 and newer. Downloading and installing the app do not, by themselves, activate a paid subscription.

Install on both phones

Download and open the APK. If Android asks, allow installation from the browser you used to download it. Choose the parent role on your phone.

Bring your family together

Add a member in “My profile and family”. On the second phone, choose the child role and join using the invitation.

Set up the features you need

Follow the permissions wizard on the child's device. It explains why each permission is needed. Send a test message and check the location.

Any more
questions?

From connecting your family to fine-tuning your phone. Find answers and detailed instructions here.

Open the help centre
Which phones does FamilyGuard support?

Android 6.0 and newer. Parents and children install the same app. Individual features depend on the phone model, Android version and permissions. An iPhone version is not currently offered.

Why install the app on two devices?

The parent's phone shows available data and controls. The child's phone shares permitted information and receives family messages and calls. Connect both devices to the same family to link them.

How many devices can I connect?

The base plan includes 3 child and 2 adult devices. Phones and tablets each use a separate place. Once paid subscriptions launch, you will be able to add one package of 5 devices, for a total of 10. Extra places cannot be purchased yet.

Do I need to pay or add a card now?

No. During the free launch, all features are available without payment or entering payment details. Any future paid order will require separate confirmation. There are no payment buttons on the website at present.

Why are location or calls sometimes unavailable?

Check the child's internet connection, location settings and permissions. Android battery-saving settings may restrict background operation. Some features need additional system confirmations. See Help for step-by-step checks.

Can I connect someone else's phone secretly?

The app is intended for family use. Connect a child's device with a legal representative's involvement and explain the purpose of the features. Adults join with their consent. System confirmations and indicators remain in place.

How do I disconnect a device or delete data?

Open “Settings → My profile and family”. Disconnecting a device frees a place but does not delete the profile. Removing a member, deleting an account and deleting a family are separate actions. Their effects and available steps are explained under “Account and data deletion” in Help.

How can I get support?

Open “Settings → Support” in the app. Describe what happened and include your phone model and FamilyGuard version. Use the provided button to send a log if it is needed for diagnosis. Do not send your account password.
