(6) • Video Supervision See a list of the YouTube videos your kids watch on their PCs or mobile devices and even view a snippet of each video, so you know when you need to talk. (3) • Mobile App Supervision See which apps your kids have downloaded on their Android devices. Choose which ones they can use.
