What is Net Nanny?

Net Nanny is a parental control tool designed to monitor and restrict children's online activity across multiple devices. It allows parents to block inappropriate websites, set screen time limits, monitor app usage, and track location. The tool works on computers, tablets, and smartphones, giving families a centralised way to manage internet access and online safety. Net Nanny is aimed at parents who want to protect younger users from harmful content and excessive screen time without requiring constant manual oversight.
