MrWiFi / Parental Controls

Parental controls for the home network

Block the apps and sites you choose — TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, games, whatever — set time limits, and keep it working on every device without installing an app on each phone.

How it works

Set it once, on the network

The rules live on the router, not an app you have to install and manage on every device. That covers phones, tablets, consoles, smart TVs — anything on the home WiFi. We set it up with gear that does this properly (UniFi or MikroTik) and show you how to change it yourself.

  • App & site blocking — TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, games
  • Adult & unsafe‑content filtering
  • Per‑device or per‑person rules
  • Nothing to install on each device

Time limits

Schedules that match the house

Homework hours, dinner, bedtime. The internet — or just certain apps — goes off for the kids’ devices at set times and comes back in the morning, with different rules for the weekend. Adults’ devices are left alone, and you can pause everything on demand.

  • Bedtime, homework & dinner schedules
  • Pause the internet on demand
  • Weekday vs weekend rules
  • Adults’ devices unaffected

Straight up

What it can and can’t do

It’s strong on the home WiFi. A phone on mobile data, or a VPN a teenager installs, is outside the home network — no home filter covers a 4G connection. We’ll lock the router down, set realistic expectations, and talk you through the mobile side so you know where the edges are.
