Question 1

Is Mobicip safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Mobicip is safe to use and has tons of features like web filtering and social media monitoring to protect your kids online. Its privacy policy also states that all of the data it acquires is carefully safeguarded through industry-standard security features including encryption, firewalls, and SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and that no personally identifiable data is sold to third parties without the user’s consent.

Question 2

Can my child bypass Mobicip?

Accepted Answer

No, Mobicip comes with uninstall protection, so if it was set up correctly, your child won’t be able to bypass or uninstall it from their device(s). To do so, ensure that your child’s account on the device is a normal user account and that they don’t have administrator access. Mobicip is also capable of filtering and monitoring activities on any browser in incognito/private mode.

Question 3

Does Mobicip allow me to see all of my child’s social media activity?

Accepted Answer

No, Mobicip only works for Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook accounts (Snapchat monitoring doesn’t work on iOS devices). It also doesn’t record all of your child’s activities. You’ll only be able to see messages and images that contain concerning behavior or content in one of the following categories: Bullying, Sexual, Violence, Drugs, and Self harm/Suicide.

If you’re interested in a parental control app with more comprehensive social media monitoring capabilities, check out Bark. Not only can it monitor over 30 social media platforms including TikTok, Skype, Discord, and more, but it also checks for 15+ categories of concerning behavior or content, and can even monitor email and text messages.

Question 4

Will my child know that I’m monitoring their social media accounts?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Mobicip requires that you have your child’s login credentials to set up its social media monitoring feature.

Bark, another parental control app that can monitor social media accounts, also encourages you to be open with your child about your use of a parental control app and about digital safety.

If for whatever reason you wish to monitor your child’s social media without them knowing, consider mSpy instead. While it’s not as good of a parental control app, it has powerful surveillance features and is designed to work stealthily.

Question 5

What devices does Mobicip work on?

Accepted Answer

Mobicip has kids apps for Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and Chromebook devices.

Parents can access their dashboard from any device through a web browser from which they can change the settings and restrictions on any of the devices being monitored by Mobicip.

Question 6

Does Mobicip allow me to monitor calls and SMS?

Accepted Answer

No. However, you can block messaging apps using Mobicip’s app filtering function, and you get reports if concerning behavior or content shows up on one of your child’s monitored social media accounts.

If call and SMS monitoring is important to you, I highly recommend checking out Qustodio instead. It’s my favorite parental control app in 2023, and it allows parents to read all of their child’s text messages and create blacklists and whitelists to block incoming or outgoing calls and messages.

Question 7

Does Mobicip have a free plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Once your 7-day free trial of Mobicip’s Premium features expires, you’ll be automatically downgraded to the Basic version. The Basic plan only gives you access to Mobicip’s web filtering function.

If you’re looking for a good free parental control app, I recommend Qustodio. Its free plan gives you access to plenty of its features including screen time monitoring, daily time limits, restricted time periods, and web filtering.
