Untangle your family's technology.

Forecast says stormy iClouds ahead

When young children start using technology, families take what feels like the most secure and quickest path: they put their own usernames and passwords on the child's device. Before long those children get older and want or need accounts of their own, and everyone's identities, passwords, preferences, and settings become a technology tangle. Kids lose their usernames. Adults lose theirs. Multiple devices.

If you have kids and devices, you have white knuckled your way through managing screen time more than once. It is often the first hurdle, right up there with preventing inappropriate content. As kids grow, they collect more logins, more devices, and more options. You want to maximize and monitor their freedoms without pulling your hair out.

Ever been watching something on Netflix, only to be interrupted by your child using the same account in another room? Found a link your child needed trapped in your personal email? Copied something in your document only to see it pasted into your child's document down the hall? These moments are more and more common, and they can be solved.

Digital safety and citizenship

There is a lot to understand when kids and families are active online, especially on social media. It is too easy to share sensitive data without realizing it. Photos carry GPS locations, captions carry names and ages, and the big idea that the internet is forever needs healthy dialogue at home. With so much information stored in databases and the chance that anyone can screenshot what we post, digital citizenship and safety have never mattered more.
