The product promise

Your child can still use the internet. Mom quietly removes the worst stuff.

Most parental controls block whole sites. Mom Guard works post by post, so you cut harm without banning the useful parts of the web.

AI feed cleaner

Scores titles, text, and links on your device. Hides or blurs mature, scary, scammy, addictive, or body-image content.

YouTube guardrails

Block Shorts, comments, live chat, autoplay, and rabbit-hole sidebars. Search and learning keep working.

Calm scrolling

Greyscale, blur until tap, finite feeds, a pause before opening, and daily limits. Free for kids and adults.

Calm parent log

Shows watch time, top topics, and blocked categories on the device. Snippets stay off unless a parent explicitly turns them on.

Ask a parent

On Family Plus, a blocked screen lets your child ask you to review it. You answer from the extension, so a block does not turn into an argument.

Conversation starters

Your weekly summary picks the most common topic, such as body image, scams, or scary content, and gives you a calm way to start the talk.

Safety packs

Start with age-based defaults, then tune the family rules.

5-7

Little Kids

Strict blocking for horror, violence, sexualised thumbnails, strangers, heavy swearing, and scary recommendations.

8-10

Tween Prep

Balanced filters for body-image spirals, addictive Shorts, prank channels, adult influencer content, scams, and off-platform contact.

11-13

Teen Prep

Less blanket blocking, stronger alerts for explicit content, grooming-risk language, self-harm, eating disorder content, gambling, and scams.

Study

Low-Dopamine

Blocks Shorts, Reels-style feeds, autoplay, drama bait, infinite scroll, one-more-video loops, and bandwidth-heavy media previews.

The paid feature

AI watch summaries, not a giant surveillance log.

Parents do not want to inspect every click. They want to know whether today was mostly Minecraft and art, whether Shorts took over, and whether anything needs a calm conversation.
