Looking for a parental control app. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought both of my kids mid-low level Motorola (Android) smartphones for Christmas. Lately their grades have been sub-par and I have taken the phones away. This presents a problem for me when I want to contact or track them.
I am looking for some kind of parental control app. I am trying to find an app that will allow me to deny access to all other apps (YouTube, internet browsers, Google Play etc). In a perfect world I would be able to shut off every app except the dialer and maybe a texting app.
Free is best but I don't mind paying a one time fee. I'm not willing to use a subscription based app that has monthly/yearly charges.
Thanks.

[Q] Kids apps sold within a wide subscription

Hi,
Question for kids apps developers...
I would really appreciate you opinion on this one.
We believe the app store model is not working well when it come to small kids
No niche categorization ( within the “kids” world )
Added value app are “buried” by tons of low value apps
lot’s of sexual & violent apps on app stores
Parents dislike the ongoing pressure to buy or unexpected purchases
MOST importantly to this forum - Good kids apps are NOT rewarding to most app developers (pushed down by mega brands/monetizers)
We would like to offer our audience (close to 1 million kids) a premium subscription based service for parents and reward developers based on real usage (real minutes spent on their app) dividing the revenues among them. so instead of one time compensation, it would be spread over time.
What do you think???
Some more info on our website
BTW- I'm not posting this to sign you up, I'm sincerely looking for your feedback and your expectations from such a service.
Thanks!

Good idea.
One of device brend (don't remember what) recently presented "sandbox" mode on their devices. Parents can activate this mode and then kid play without any danger. You could integrate your "market" there But google play policy don't allow to modify apk files via applications...

[Q] is there any good android wallet app?

I had been searching around for a good android app that could be used to assist in managing account. But so far I had found only this app called Wallet.
which is the best so far in my opinion. However, the subscription fees for that application is a headache.
I had tried Windows phone before and found a wonderful wallet app called money wallet.
If anyone tried the app before, there are features on the app such as(where the wallet app for android does not have) :
-unlimited account(paid version. cost less than $3 to use forever.)
-different account type setting and many modification can be made.
-create debt(will auto create a payment and separate them to the payback duration. interest rate and total amount set by you of course)
-and many other features
just wondering if there is any android wallet app out there that can match with the functionality or price of the money wallet app in windows phone. The only thing i don't like on the windows phone version is the UI(not colorful enough. XD). However, in term of functionality and pricing, it wins the android wallet app that i mentioned above many many times.
PS: newbie here. so cant post any link. You guys may search for the apps and download to try. Both of them has free edition to try out before buying.

[APP] Companion app for the Wear

Hi there,
I've been using a Wear for the past few months, and got quite disappointed by the lack of really useful features. Ok, notification mirroring is kinda cool, but at the end of the day it's not a real game changer.
I tried creating something more useful for the Wear. When you get a phone call, the application will display all the latest interaction you had with the caller: your emails, shared events, notes, documents... (from Dropbox, Gdrive, LinkedIn, etc)
This is especially useful on business occasions. If you have lots of calls from people you barely remember (as I do), this can prove invaluable: you get an instant refresh on the person while chitchatting. And when you get to the real matter, you remember the invoice he sent or the event where you met him (or her ? :angel last year.
The app is on the Play Store -- search for "Anyfetch Companion" or visit play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anyfetch.companion
Anyway, i'd really like to get your heavy-wear-user feedback. What do you think? Is it useful? Sadly, I'm no designer, so Lollipop design ifs far from perfect -- idem, feedbacks welcomed.

Searching for app solution for my business

Hello,
I'm researching a little regarding creating an app that would have an inbuilt option for live chat via video, text and voice calls. Also, it would be nice if this chats could have an option that payment would happen per minute charge (if not also just option for paying inside the app is fine). As my targeted audience is people that use psychotherapy, but for some reasons can't use this service in person.
Are there maybe already this kind of solutions and you can buy or pay annually usage of this system.
Thank you for your suggestions and help.
Mick
I was thinking that maybe building a simple app with integrated customer support system would be ok for starters and paying would be done from outside the app (like PayPal). Does anybody know if this is possible or that it exists - so customer support system (logged in agends, live text chat or even audio) in app?
Thank you
