Does anyone know of a good privacy respecting (preferably FOSS) parental control app for Android? I’m trying to convince a friend to get a Pixel with GrapheneOS as their kids next phone but they won’t do it unless it let’s them control certain things.

They’re used to iOS where apparently their kid can request to download an app and they can remotely allow the installation. They can also add screen time beyond the original set limit if the kids requests it.

Unfortunately, I don’t think they’d be open to switching if it means losing their parental controls.

    HAH! You don’t have kids do you? A 15yo needs more locks than an 8yo any day! Little kids stay in their bubbles and never even realize they’re being filtered, teens go out and actively look for shit they shouldn’t.
