Staying Safe – Ipads or Mobile Phones
I recently heard about great phone app you can use to help ensure your child’s safety with an Ipad or mobile phone. The app is called My Mobile Watchdog, it makes it easy to monitor and manages your child’s Ipad mobile phone – this way you can see all of their contacts, texts and what they use the phone/Ipad for. This FREE app is only available on the iPhone or iPad however, but feel free to follow the link below and have a look for yourself.
