“Helps me give my teens their independence and privacy without having to worry about the worst.”
Anonymous User5 Star Review, Apple App Store
“The app works great. It has been especially helpful during the pandemic. I would recommend it to anyone.”
Nick M.5 Star Review, Apple App Store
“Love how they’re using AI to keep up. The internet is way too dynamic to think that the old filter softwares will be effective. Also great to have manual control over specific websites.”
Anonymous User5 Star Review, Apple App Store
“Great app, easy to use. In my mind it's one of the best solutions to addressing a serious problem that comes with mobile phones for people of ALL ages, not just kids.”
Josh D.5 Star Review, Google Play Store
“Great app! Simple to use and incredibly useful! Allows for conversations to be had about proper technology usage. This is the best app that I've found so far.”
Nathan W.5 Star Review, Google Play Store
“The data about what porn can do to your brain is truly frightening. Apps like this are such a powerful tool to keep your children safe while they are still too young to understand the consequences.”
Anonymous User5 Star Review, Apple App Store
“Love the mission love the product. Thank you, Canopy team, for serving our society in this way...a ray of light in the grossly over sexualized world we live in. What a great tool to have in the toolbox!”
