Games and apps time restrictions
Do you know, that according to the AACAP report children spend up to 9 hours a day playing mobile games or using other apps? Game producers will do everything so that your child can’t stop playing, or even thinking about their game. That’s why they send all kinds of notifications while your child isn’t playing. For instance, after receiving a notification your child starts playing again, because they just found out that another player has reached a higher score.
If such notifications aren’t enough, game producers will often send messages with bonuses and other incentives to entice children and make them play longer. This is very dangerous. Children often get addicted to games and gradually lose contact with the real world.

Psychologists warn that this negatively affects children’s creativity and their social development. Due to prolonged exposure to games, parents are having a harder time communicating with their children.

What’s different about Avosmart is the possibility to choose which apps and games should be covered by time limits and schedules. This is a major advantage because there are other useful apps on your child’s phone, such as Contacts or Maps. These apps can be exempt from time limits, allowing your child to use them freely.In other parental control apps, the child cannot make phone calls after reaching their app use limit, and that can be very dangerous.
