SAFE PHONES FOR KIDS

Balance blocks apps and websites focused on social media, gaming, gambling, adult content, streaming and dating. Everything outside these categories remains fully accessible.

Your child can still use messaging apps, email, navigation, music, banking, health and productivity tools normally. The phone works perfectly for everyday life, just without the distractions.

No.

Restrictions work at system level and cannot be removed by the user alone. This makes it significantly harder to bypass compared to standard parental control apps.

Yes!

Balance Phone is fully compatible with Google Family Link, Samsung Parental Controls and other parental control apps. Many families combine both for extra layers like screen time limits. 

Balance Phone makes bypassing parental controls much harder than usual, since restrictions work at system level rather than just app level. We recommend completing the Balance setup first and configuring parental controls afterward to avoid any interference.

Yes, your child has full access to the Google Play Store.

However, if an app falls into a blocked category (social media, games, gambling, adult content, streaming or dating), it may download but will be automatically blocked when they try to open it.

If you want to check whether a specific app works on Balance Phone before downloading it, you can try it here.

Yes, but only through Chrome and Ecosia, the two browsers where Balance restrictions apply. Websites are filtered using the same criteria as apps, so harmful or addictive content is blocked automatically.
