So here's my honest take on Circle 1st generation. I've tested a bunch of parental control apps and this one's pretty solid. The features work well and it's easy to customize for your family's needs. But it does have some issues - the interface is a bit clunky and the setup took me a while to figure out. Compared to some newer options, it feels a bit outdated. Still, if you need a reliable way to manage your kids' screen time, Circle is a good choice.

Description

Been using Circle 1st generation for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that helps you manage your family’s time online. Pretty solid if you’re into that kind of thing.

Here’s what you do: you can set time limits for different devices and apps, filter content, and track your kids’ activity. There’s also a feature where you can pause the internet – that’s pretty cool. And you can create different profiles for each family member, which is useful.

Look, if you’re into parental control apps, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the setup can be kinda confusing at first – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.
