A team of British Dads have launched the world’s first proactive child safety app for mobile devices to keep children safe online.
Mobile Force Field is the result of four fathers work to protect their children whenever they use smartphones or tablets.
The app works to protect children from cyberbullying, sexting, online grooming and access to inappropriate web content whenever wherever they use their mobile device.
It is the world’s first app to step in and proactively block suspicious or harmful words, phrases and images before they are viewed by the child – and instead diverts the suspicious text or MMS to the parent leaving decisions over suitability with them.
Mobile Force Field allows parents to block or restrict access to third party apps such as Snapchat, Twitter or games that require in app purchases and a host of features designed to assist parenting in this very modern digital age.
Protecting
Mobile Force Field MD Matt Archer, said: “We believe Mobile Force Field is potentially the most significant step forward in terms of protecting children online since the creation of the smartphone.
“The internet is an incredible invention, as is the technology behind smartphones and tablets but I do think we as parents have either underestimated or ignored the potential for hurt and upset that this combination presents for our children.
“It is not our intention to restrict that access or deny the incredible opporties that this technology presents for our children but, for all the wonderful opportunities and incredible advantages of the web and mobile technology, surely we need to think more carefully about the potential dangers these advances in technology bring.
“We want to make the Internet and the use of mobile technology a fantastic, fun but crucially safe place for children to explore and have fun and Mobile Force Field provides exactly that; a safety net that protects our children from harm when it danger lurks.”
Mobile Force Field is a patent pending app that is available for Android devices in every English speaking country in the world. The app is designed as a family friendly tool that would only be installed onto the child device with their knowledge.
The software is packed with useful features including:
Mobile Force Field is available via a monthly or annual subscription. A very simple download procedure installs the software onto the tablet or smartphone. It remains visible and can not be installed in secret and used as a spy app.
Parents can review settings, change features and review activity including any warnings or messages via a secure online parental portal which can be assessed from any phone, tablet, PC or Mac via an encrypted log-on and password combination known only to the individual parent.
