FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about setup, screen time, safety rules, and family check-ins.

Does NexSpy work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. NexSpy is a parental control app designed for families using iPhone and Android devices. Compatibility can vary by device model, OS version, and the setup you choose—your dashboard will guide you to the best option for your family.

Does NexSpy work on iPad?

Yes. NexSpy supports parental controls on iPad, with guided setup based on your device and iPadOS version. Set limits, review activity, and manage rules from your Parent Dashboard.

Is NexSpy a good parental control app for teenagers?

Yes. NexSpy is built for teen routines—school nights, social apps, and healthy boundaries. You get clear insights and sensible controls without turning parenting into constant checking.

How does NexSpy setup work for parents and kids?

Create your parent account, choose the devices you want to manage, then follow the guided steps for your preferred setup. You can use NexSpy with on-device parental controls for deeper management, or use a consent-based check-in link when you don’t want to install an app.

Can I set daily screen time limits and schedules (bedtime / school time)?

Yes. You can set screen time limits that match your routine—daily caps, bedtime schedules, and school-time rules. Adjust them anytime as your child’s habits and responsibilities change.

Can NexSpy block apps or pause the device when needed?

Yes. NexSpy helps you block apps or pause access when it’s time to focus, sleep, or recharge. You can use these controls as firm boundaries or temporary time-out tools—whatever fits your parenting style.

Can NexSpy filter websites or restrict content by category?

Yes. NexSpy includes web filtering so you can reduce exposure to inappropriate or distracting content. You can apply restrictions by category and review web activity summaries to keep rules aligned with your child’s age.

Does NexSpy provide weekly reports or activity summaries?

Yes. NexSpy provides weekly reports and activity summaries that highlight patterns over time—what changed, what’s trending, and what might need attention. It’s designed to give parents clarity without endless scrolling.

Does NexSpy include location tracking and safe-zone alerts?

Yes. NexSpy supports location tracking and can alert you around important places like home or school (safe zones). You can also review recent location history and check-ins to understand routines and trips.

Can I use NexSpy without installing an app (check-in link)? How does it work?

Yes. If you don’t want to install an app, you can send a secure check-in link to request location sharing. When your child opens the link, they can choose to share a check-in—making it a practical option for travel days, meetups, or quick reassurance.

Is NexSpy legal to use? Do I need consent?

NexSpy is designed for responsible, parent-led use. Laws can vary by country and situation, so you should use NexSpy only where you have the right to manage the device/account (for example, as a parent/guardian) and always follow local consent and privacy rules.

How does NexSpy protect privacy and data?

NexSpy is built with a privacy-minded, transparency-first approach. We focus on clear setup expectations, controlled access in the parent dashboard, and responsible data handling so families can use parental controls with confidence.
