WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT BRIGHTCANARY

“My child has severe depression so it’s important that I monitor her for safety reasons. Your app has essentially helped us save her life. I can’t thank you enough for everything you are doing with this amazing app. Please know how much of an incredible difference you are making for us as a family. Thank you!”
— Maya, mom of 1

“The app monitors for adult images in messages and any concerning content in search, without me having to look through my son’s phone. Which has helped me find the right balance between trust and safety. Highly recommend it!”
— Linda, mom of 2

"A 13 year old from a nearby middle school died in his bedroom after taking what he thought was a muscle relaxant. It turned out to be a counterfeit that was laced and he ordered it like a pizza through a social media app. Parents, we need to supervise. This app is the best one I’ve found to do that. And it monitors DMs."
— Donna, mom of 2

Has potential- yet far from useful

While it claims you can add a viewer - you can’t! It may show you what your kid type, but not with who it did and what lead to it. Long story short, it would be rated high 15 years ago, not today.

When it works

I have problems with connectivity and erroneous errors saying our cloud storage - sometimes I get replies from tech support, but sometimes I don’t. When it works, I think it’s pretty good. Issues with some text and concerning content but then can’t figure out where that content originated for full context. Last week I got an error saying my teen was swearing in a text. I couldn’t find the exact text - I finally did, but my kid didn’t swear. The AI pulled out a typo and then erroneously changed it to a swear word. It wasn’t even an edited text message. It tracks raw keyboard input but doesn’t tell you where that input was done so I can’t tell if it’s a safari search or otherwise. I think a lot of improvements still need to be made, but umber one improvement would be responding to customers when there are issues with the app.
