Netsanity has released its brand new parental control client app for Samsung Android devices. This extends Netsanity’s mobile reach to the hundreds of millions of Samsung installed devices. Our Samsung app, when installed on a child’s Samsung smartphone or tablet, allows parents to use all of Netsanity’s traditional tools but adds extra security and restrictions that are unavailable to Apple iOS users. Below we list what’s new and what is possible with Netsanity’s new Android parental controls.
