For families

Real control. Real peace of mind.

WOWCHAT gives parents genuine, remote control over their child's experience — not a settings menu buried three taps deep, but a real command centre built for how families actually use their phones.

WOWCHAT recommends Parental Controls for all users aged 15 and under, and treats accounts belonging to minors under 16 as requiring guardian consent.

Included with every account

The essentials, free from day one

Link your child's device securely, via QR code
PIN-protected settings — only you can make changes
Report Suspicious Activity — always available
Unlocked with WOWCHAT Pro

The full toolkit, when you need more

These deeper controls are part of WOWCHAT Pro — the same subscription that also removes ads and unlocks advanced scheduling.

PRO

Remote App Pause

Instantly lock the app on your child's device, from your own phone, the moment it's needed.

PRO

Bedtime Mode

Set nightly lock hours, with separate schedules for weekdays and weekends — no more late-night scrolling.

PRO

Approve New Contacts

Nobody new can message your child until you've personally allowed it.

PRO

Block Voice, Media & Groups

Choose to switch off voice notes, photos and files, or group chats entirely — one-on-one only, if that's your preference.

PRO

Word & Keyword Filtering

Add specific words or phrases you never want reaching your child — filtered automatically, every time.

PRO

Real-Time Activity Alerts

Get notified the moment something needs your attention — not days later in a monthly summary.

PRO

Weekly Activity Reports

A clear, regular summary of your child's activity — no guessing, no digging through settings.

PRO

Contact & Group Monitoring

See who your child adds, and who's adding them — full visibility, without needing to ask.

Daily Screen Time Limits

Set a daily hours limit that fits your family — from a quick preset to any custom number of hours.

How it works

Set up in minutes, in control from day one

1

Link with a QR code

Show your child's device a QR code from your own phone to securely link the two accounts. It expires in 10 minutes, so it can't be reused later.

2

Set your rules

Turn on exactly the controls that fit your child's age — bedtime hours, contact approval, filtering, and more.

3

Stay in control, remotely

Adjust settings, pause the app, or review activity any time — all protected behind your own PIN.

PIN-protected settings — only you can make changes
Report Suspicious Activity — always available, straight to our safety team
Ready when you are

Give your family real peace of mind

Free to set up. Built into every WOWCHAT account.
