System-wide parental control Β· iOS

Screen Time tells you
how long.
Knight Shield tells
you what.

Knight Shield installs a system-wide content filter on your child's iPhone or iPad that watches every app β€” not just the browser. Safari, YouTube, TikTok: all covered, all analyzed, from one parent dashboard.

What we don't do β€” and why

Knight Shield doesn't do screen time limits, app blocking, or location tracking. Those are control features β€” and Screen Time already handles them well. We built Knight Shield for the thing Screen Time can't do: showing you what's actually happening inside every app, analyzed by AI so you get answers instead of raw data. Use Screen Time for the clock. Use Knight Shield for the visibility.

The Knight Shield approach

One coherent product.
Built to work together.

Two parts, designed as a single system β€” a mobile app that silently protects every device, and a dashboard that gives you full visibility.

πŸ“±

The Mobile App

For your children's iOS devices. Installs quietly and filters every app in the background. Your child never sees it or interacts with it after setup.

  • Every app covered β€” Safari, YouTube, TikTok
  • Works anywhere β€” home, school, a friend's house
  • Instant alert if your child turns off protection
  • Blocks adult content and trackers automatically
  • Minimal setup β€” done in minutes
Android coming soon
πŸ“Š

The Dashboard

For you. A parent-facing web app where you can see exactly what each child is doing online, what was blocked, and adjust their protection at any time.

  • Per-child online activity log
  • Block history with reasons
  • AI-analyzed insights with behavior verdicts
  • Custom approved & blocked websites per child
  • Co-parent access with permission controls
Protection, in depth

Every layer, covered.

πŸ”’

Filters every app, not just one browser

Protection runs at the network level on your child's device β€” so it covers every app automatically. Adult content is blocked before it loads, whether they're in Safari, YouTube, TikTok, or anything else.

πŸ“‹

Custom website rules

Block or approve websites for your whole household, or set different rules for each child individually. Your teenager and your eight-year-old don't have to share the same settings.

πŸ“Š

AI-powered behavior insights

Activity heatmaps, late-night usage detection, and AI-generated verdicts. Knight Shield doesn't just log data β€” it analyzes patterns and tells you what to pay attention to.

πŸ””

Tamper alerts

Instant notification if your child turns off protection or uninstalls the app. Dashboard banner plus email β€” you'll always know straight away.

🎬

Watch history analysis

Upload your child's YouTube or TikTok watch history and get an AI-powered report card β€” flagged content, themes, top channels, and specific parent tips. No other parental control does this.

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦

Multiple child profiles

Each child gets their own profile, filter rules, and activity history. Manage all of them from one dashboard β€” with co-parent access controls if you share responsibility.

Setup in minutes

Three steps to a safer internet.

01

Create your family

Sign up and add a profile for each child β€” just a name. Your children don't need their own accounts. You stay in control.

02

Set up the device

Download the Knight Shield app on your child's iOS or Android device. Sign in, select their profile, and the app installs the protection automatically β€” every app on their device is covered in under a minute.

03

Stay informed

Browse the dashboard any time to see what every app on your child's device is doing. Review activity, check AI-generated insights, and adjust filter rules β€” all from one place.

The differentiator

Other tools give you logs.
We give you answers.

Most parental controls dump raw data on you and expect you to figure it out. Knight Shield analyzes your child's activity with AI and tells you what actually matters β€” patterns, concerns, and a clear verdict.

You shouldn't need a computer science degree to know if your child's internet use looks healthy. We do the analysis. You get the answer.

βœ“ AI verdict: "good week," "something to watch," or "worth a conversation"
βœ“ Activity heatmap β€” see exactly when they're online, hour by hour
βœ“ Late-night usage flagged automatically
βœ“ Actionable signals: "retried a blocked site 5 times," "new social media app detected"
Simple pricing
