KidShield is a fantastic tool for parents who want to ensure their child's online safety. Unlike the regular HomeShield Parental Control, which only functions when clients are connected to home Wi-Fi, KidShield Parental Control surpasses this limitation. Additionally, even if clients enable Randomize MAC address, KidShield's safeguards remain effective. By using KidShield, you can foster a safe and secure digital environment, allowing your child to explore the internet while you maintain control and supervision.

Is KidShield free for users?

Currently, KidShield is in the beta test phase which is free.
