Qustodio structures its paid subscription plans around family size, with Small (five devices), Medium (10 devices), and Large (15 devices) options. You also get basic controls like web filtering and time quotas for certain activities. The free version limits monitoring to just a single device and only keeps seven days of activity history. Qustodio for Families is expensive, but it does have a permanently free option. Although it is expensive and lacks strong social media tracking tools, Qustodio's wide range of features and excellent customizability secure it an Editors' Choice award for parental control software. You handle all configuration and monitoring either via Qustodio's online dashboard or the parental mode of its mobile apps, which means you can set rules and review your child's activity from anywhere. Qustodio, an impressive parental control utility, boasts just about every feature you might want, including web content filtering, robust app blocking, and a detailed activity log.

We could also choose to hide Qustodio something that will appeal to parents of older children.

Next comes an extensive but easy, wizard-based setup process that involves creating a password, entering some personal and family information, and setting up separate accounts for each child.
