Accessibility notification for parents
Parents are notified whenever the accessibility permission is disabled on their child’s device. Enabling this permission prevents removal of the FamilyMode app and VPN. This also allows the device to be locked during Bedtime and Off Times.
Location sharing notification for children
FamilyMode notifies children on their Child dashboard whenever FamilyMode is sharing their location with other family members.
