According to statistics, the largest group of viewers of internet porn are?children between ages 10 and 17. And while the thought of our children viewing those images is scary, online predators are another danger. The first thing parents must do is educate their kids about the potential dangers of technology. Children should also be taught to tell if they have a bad experience and share about the encounter.

Children are naturally curious and may not always know when an online situation is unsafe for them. Fortunately, there is a parental control app,?eKAVACH that?can help monitor your child’s online activity.

KAVACH is an Indian word which means shield. There are 2 apps for this service ? a parent app to be loaded on the parent’s mobile phone and a child app to be loaded on the child’s smart device.

eKAVACH digital parenting app is designed to help parents impart kids, secure online habits and enable safe exploration. This simple and easy to use app allows parents to keep track of kids? Android activity at-a-glance, so the kids are safe and you as guardians can help them avoid inappropriate activities on the web , incongruous apps and other online threats prevailing. Because if you know where your kids spend most of their time online, it will give you a better understanding into their interests and behavior.

There are several features which will benefit you as parent while following the digital footprints of your kids. eKAVACH helps you to know about which websites kids are visiting and helps avoid children being able to?view unsolicited content. Another advantageous feature is that it can help parents to regulate and manage the time kids are spending on their devices . It gives you flexibility to change the timing according to their needs.

It also lets you easily stay in the loop which apps your kids have downloaded and lets you block and unblock them even when you are on the go.

On the other hand it does not have the ability?to keep track of your kids SMS text conversations which I believe is a feature which should be added.
