Is there a parental control app that is good out there?

Mobicip and K9 are really good options. I like Mobicip especially because K9 doesn't offer the "Open in" dialog for files. If you're on an iPad, Olly is another really good option, though again it won't let you open files.
Remember to delete all google apps, they are full of loopholes.

  • HT201304 Kindle Amazon app store has an app called childs place. It's a parental control app that allows the parent to put only apps into it for childrens access & requires a password to get out of. Anyone know if there is a similar app in the Apple app s

    Kindle App Store has an app names Child's Place. It lets you add only the apps you want your child to access and requires a passcode to exit it. That way your child cannot access any other content except what you have allowed in this particular app. Does anyone know if Apple App store has anything comparable? I know you can set up restrictions in settings but this is different.
    Thanks

    Sorry but no, that is not possible in iOS. Other than what is offered in the Restrictions, there is no way to lock apps in general unless the app itself has a password feature. You can in iOS 6 lock the iPad into a single app, but that's your only option.
    It's a tradeoff; apps can't affect each other except in very restrictive ways in iOS which makes such features from third parties impossible, but it also renders getting malware infecting your iOS device extremely unlikely, something not the case with Android-based devices.
    Regards.

  • HT5622 Are there any parental controls that can be placed on an apple ID that a parent would obtain for a child?

    Are there any parental controls that can be placed on an apple ID that a parent would obtain for a child?

    Not on the ID as such, but you can certainly use parental controls (Sustem Preferences) and/or create a limited access user account  (in Users & Groups). You would have to delete any applications or folders s/he is not allowed to have access to.

  • Parental Controls app settings keep changing on their own

    I manage a lab and have setup Parental Controls to allow certain apps. However, later students will launch an app. that I have enabled and get the dialog box saying it isn't allowed. I go back and check parental controls for that computer and the app is now unchecked.
    1) how can I keep this from happening?
    2) is there a preferences file somewhere that I can save and then just upload from time to time?
    Thanks,
    Craig

    I suspect your students are smarter than you think they are
    Be sure nobody knows the admin password. Change it to be sure and make sure nobody is looking.
    Be sure nobody has a Leopard DVD handy.
    Be sure all users are non-admin types.
    Check all 3rd party apps installed on the machines.
    You can also check the console logs on the machines to see how and when the change occurred.

    "Motion 5" is your friend.
    Michael Wohl has a nice 15 video series (free) about Motion 5 at http://www.macprovideo.com/tutorial/motion5101-overview-and-workflow-guide (right side)
    This is a "teaser" series to sell his tutorials but it is really good. Just saw it yesterday for the first time.
    While all you want is just to place pins, realize that Motion has so much more. All kinds of effects and they can be really customized. Maybe put their street address, contact name, and phone number by the pin?
    Motion 5: cheap at $49.99 (just got my download two days ago)
    Motion 5: Support Community athttps://discussions.apple.com/community/professional_applications/motion_5
    If you're using the map for, say, deliveries, and use an iPad, what you could do is have a general map of the area imported into Motion, create the pins and whatever, then save (share?) it to the iPad.
    Disclaimer: I have virtually no relationship with anything connected with this tutorial product, developer, or anything.

    As the King says, if your friends wifi router was relatively new, it likely has not been picked up by Apple's location based information database system and thus there is no location information associated with it.  So your iPad had no way of getting its location.
    The wifi location databases are traditionally updated by wardriving - literally companies employ people to drive around sniffing out active wifi signals and associating an approximate location to it.  Some companies also have web sites to submit that information if owners wish to (Apple does not seem to have one though), and the various companies with wifi location databases buy and sell their information.  Bottom line is though, it can take weeks, months or sometimes even longer for a residential router to get picked up - depends on where you live (more rural, likely the longer time it takes).
    When I moved from VA to NC it took up to 6 months for mine to reflect my new location (I checked it once the week I moved in, and then periodically thereafter, and it finally was getting it right after about 6 months) and I live in a pretty densley populated area (triangle NC).

  • Is there a photo album app that let's you add a photo to an album from the full-screen view of a photo, not the just thumbnail view?

    Is there a photo album app that let's you add a photo to an album from the full-screen view of a photo, not the just the thumbnail view?

    ...It's just really annoying to try to organize photos into an album when you can't see the full screen version of the photo... especially if you have several similar-looking photos, and you can't tell the one you want from looking at 40 thumbnails on an iPhone screen.

    No, there isn't.

  • Is there a video chat app that can use the Charge's front facing camera?

    Is there a video chat app that can use the Charge's front facing camera?
    Edit: for video chat between the Charge and a PC. 
    Thanks!

    I tried Tango, Qik, and ooVoo. 
    The only one that can use the Charge's front facing camera AND video chat with a PC is the ooVoo.
    Works perfectly!
    Tango and Qik ad mobile-to-mobile only at this time.
    Thanks!
    P.S.   .... this really makes me wonder why Skype cannot work with the front facing camera if other
    companies can do it on the Froyo?  I guess Skype developers are really lazy(or have no incentive
    to make it work)

  • After upgrading to 7.0.4 yesterday on my iPhone 4, there are still 7 apps that are waiting to download, including Facebook. Is there anything I can do? These are apps I use frequently. Thanks.

    After upgrading to 7.0.4 yesterday on my iPhone 4, there are still 7 apps that are waiting to download, including Facebook. The phone was plugged in for 12 hours and it has had a Wi-Fi connection for most of the 24 hours. Is there anything I can do? These are apps I use frequently. Thanks.

    this is not phone or OS problem . its only your router DNS transfer function problem
    I have resolved the problem by myself. I just figured out that the problem due to the DNS transfer function in my router. If I set the iPhone 4S to use the DNS server as 192.168.1.1 which is also the ip address of my router it will have the problem until I set the DNS to some common DNS service, such as 8.8.8.8 from Google. I think it is the problem of compatibiliy between the iOS and the router.
      GOTO SETTINGS>>WI-FI>>click on informatio button(i) of your network>> change DNS to 8.8.8.8>> return
    all the best........

  • Why are there so many apps and wearable tech out there that specifically focuses on losing weight?

    I'm under weight and would really like to see some apps for people like me who want to gain about 30 lbs!

    Why are there so many apps and wearable tech out there that specifically focuses on losing weight?
    Because there's a 35x bigger market for it.
    Percent of adults   age 20 years and over who are overweight, including  obesity: 69.2% (2009-2010) - http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/overwt.htm
    ...an estimated 1.7% of U.S. adults aged 20 and over are underweight - http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hestat/underweight_adult_07_10/underweight_adult_07 _10.htm
    I suggest you type
    weight gain app osx
    into a search engine.  I did and one came up on the top line (no idea if it is any good, you have to determine that yourself).
