FAQ

Do I need to install anything on my kids' devices?

No — protection happens at the network level through the gateway.

No. Guardian-CORR filters at the network level through the gateway, so every device connected to your Guardian Wi-Fi is protected automatically — phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, game consoles, and guests.

What that means

  • Nothing to install on any device, and nothing a child can uninstall
  • New devices are covered the moment they join your network
  • Devices with no parental-control ecosystem (TVs, consoles) get the same rules

What is not covered

Network filtering applies while a device is on your home network. For devices that leave home, you can pair the gateway with built-in OS tools like Apple Screen Time or Google Family Link — many families run both.
