Update: Recieved a quick and generic response. It isn't a phone manufacturer issue, it's an Android OS setting that they won't work around. Found a new app that actually allows me to lock the home button and lock the launcher until I log out of it. Will be using that from now on. I used to use this for my oldest. Now, it no longer works. As long as 3 year old hits the home button she can get to my apps. The only thing that won't work when it's "locked" is the notification bar.

Keeps kids out of what they dint need to be in. Just wish you could put more apps in it. My child has several games she plays and I have to continuously rotate them in and out of the app for her to be able to use them when she wants. I'd like to be able to just add as many as I like without a limit

This app used to be great, and actually stay locked. Now even if it's locked, my kids only have to hit the menu button and it takes it to the main phone screen and out of the phone. I'm not ok with this, and what is the point of having an app that is supposed to lock phones, but doesn't even do that. It's pretty much useless. I see the comments that it is an Android issue, if this is the case, and the app no longer works on droid's, it seems that this app should be removed from the store.

Since last few updates, totally worthless! My 9 year old son has figured out how to get the app to crash & allow him access to the main screen, has been on YouTube watching things he shouldn't & it explains his recent nightmares, has been using Google chrome as well. We paid for the full version years ago & it worked fine until recently. Don't waste your time or money & look elsewhere. This app will NOT work & will allow them access to apps you don't want them to use on their tablets.

Over all great! I have Premium and can add more than 8 apps. I keep the apps divided for school and play/video times. Ive recently locked myself out by forgetting my passcode and had assistance, was unlocked again, within an hour.

A good app for limiting access to your phone. Especially useful when you are out and needing to distract kids. Only had a problem one time in the last 10 years of children using the app and the helped to resolved it within an hours despite the scary warning it might take up to 36 hours. would recommend

How the Child Lock Works
When a parent locks Kids Zone the app begins to continuously monitor the child's phone or tablet app usage and locks the child in a special kids place on the device. Kids Zone will automatically block access to all apps that aren't included in a child's profile. Kids Zone can also prevent a child from making phone calls or sending texts (SMS), posting on Facebook or Instagram (or any social network), browsing the Internet, buying in-app-purchases and more!
