FocusEdge
Parental control app for Android and iPhone
Lock your phone before your child uses it for homework. Study Mode blocks YouTube, Instagram, games and inappropriate websites. Only the study apps and websites you choose will open. GPay and PhonePe stay locked too.
Try free for 7 days. No card needed.
Your phone has everything on it. With Study Mode on, all of this stays shut until you enter your PIN.
Videos and games. One YouTube video, then reels, then games. Twenty minutes of maths becomes two hours.
Social media. Instagram, Snapchat and Facebook, where strangers can message your child.
Inappropriate websites. Violent, betting and other inappropriate websites are one search away.
Your money and chats. One tap in GPay or a game, and your money is gone. WhatsApp and your photos stay private too.
Most Android phones come with a free kids mode. It only works if you remember to turn it on, and most kids modes let in the whole browser or none of it.
You're cooking, the phone was on the table, and now it isn't. You didn't turn on Study Mode, but inappropriate websites are still blocked and Google shows only safe results.
Blocked by mistake? Allow this site with your PIN.
Teachers send links, and projects need searching. The browser opens the websites on your list, and everything else shows a block page.
Choose the apps and websites your child needs for study, and set a PIN only you know.
Turn on Study Mode and give your child the phone. On Android, iPhone and iPad you can set a timer from 1 to 8 hours, or no timer so it stays on until you end it.
Enter your PIN and your phone is yours again, exactly as you left it.
Your phone holds your chats, your photos and your money. Blocking happens on your phone, and we never see which apps or websites are opened, or anything inside them.

Your list of study apps and websites (on iPhone and iPad, only how many study apps)

FocusEdge is an app for parents in India whose child does homework on the parent's phone. Turn on Study Mode and only the study apps and websites you choose will open until you enter your PIN, or until the timer you set runs out. Inappropriate websites stay blocked even when Study Mode is off. Android, iPhone and iPad: 7 days free, then ₹699 a year.
All Android phones, including Vivo, OPPO, realme, Xiaomi, Samsung, OnePlus and Motorola. Some Android phones switch apps off to save battery, so setup shows you the one setting to change on your phone. FocusEdge also works on iPhone and iPad.
Not without your PIN. Android: Settings and the Play Store are locked during Study Mode too, so nothing can be installed, removed or changed, and the notification panel stays closed, so your messages stay private. iPhone, iPad: During Study Mode no app can be installed or deleted, and we email you if FocusEdge's Screen Time access is turned off.
Android: Adult, violence and gore, hate, illegal activity, drugs and alcohol, gambling and betting (including fantasy sports), and dating websites. You can change this list. Google and other search engines show only safe results. These stay blocked even when Study Mode is off, in Chrome, Samsung Internet, Firefox, Edge and Brave. In Study Mode, only your study websites open, and other browsers are locked. iPhone, iPad: Adult websites, and well-known gambling, betting and violent websites, stay blocked in Safari and other browsers, even when Study Mode is off. You can block any other website yourself. In Study Mode, only your study websites open.
No. Neither iPhone nor Android has a built-in study mode. Apple's Focus silences notifications, and Android's Focus mode pauses the apps you pick. Neither locks the phone to study apps. FocusEdge adds a Study Mode where only the apps you choose open, with an optional 1 to 8 hour timer or no timer, on iPhone and Android.
No. FocusEdge only checks which app or website is opening, so it can allow or block it. It never reads messages, photos or anything inside an app, and none of that is sent to us.
Open FocusEdge, enter your PIN, and add it to your study apps.
Only to sign in when you set it up. After that, Study Mode, blocking and your PIN all work without internet.
The first 7 days are free, with no card needed. After that it's ₹699 a year in India, paid through Google Play or the App Store. Cancel any time.
Yes, it's your phone. Uninstall FocusEdge like any other app, whenever you like.
7 days free, then ₹699 a year. For Android, iPhone and iPad.
