There is no doubt that the Internet is a wonderful thing, providing access to a plethora of information and convenient ways to communicate with others, regardless of location. However, it also has its dark side. For instance, children might be exposed to content that is inappropriate for their age, so parents try to find ways to protect them while they learn safe browsing. A parental control application usually does the trick, and Mobicip is one example.The purpose of Mobicip is to prevent children from reaching webpages that might display improper images and text, thus keeping them safe. It can protect the child's user account without affecting other computer users by imposing access restrictions for websites that are known to reveal unsafe or unsuitable content.

Real-time monitoring from the system tray

Setting up the application does not take long, but a computer restart might be required for the changes to take effect.

If you don't already have one, then you have to take the time and create one online.

Pre-defined profiles in the basic edition

Once you log in with your credentials, Mobicip displays a list of all the computer users, each with its own privileges.
