Parental controls for Smart TV

Smart TVs have browsers, YouTube apps, and app stores — and almost no parental-control ecosystem. There is no app you can install on most TVs, which makes network-level filtering the only practical option. Guardian-CORR blocks adult and other restricted categories on every TV in the house while it's connected to your protected home network.

Guardian-CORR protects your Smart TV while it is connected to your protected home network. Away from home — on cellular or another Wi-Fi network — the device uses its normal, unfiltered connection. For away-from-home coverage on phones, you can pair Guardian-CORR with the device's built-in controls.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install anything on the Smart TV?▾

No. Filtering happens on the Guardian gateway, so the Smart TV is protected as soon as it's connected to your home Wi-Fi — no app, no profile install.

Does it work when the Smart TV is away from home?▾

No — Guardian-CORR protects the Smart TV while it is connected to your protected home network. On cellular or another Wi-Fi network, it uses its normal connection.

Can my child turn the protection off from the Smart TV?▾

Not while at home. The rules live on the gateway, not the device — there's nothing on the Smart TV to remove, reset, or sign out of.

Protect every Smart TV in your home

Plug in the gateway, create a profile, and every screen in the house is protected.
