What’s New Version 1.2.11
For a better experience with Apple Music, you can now set it to Always-Allowed on admin.livingroomapp.com. Also, LivingRoom app cold-start time is now faster.
Description
Screens are visible in your LivingRoom! Gain true insight with screenshots from every app, helping you teach digital responsibility through transparency, not just restriction.
LivingRoom can be used to monitor anything! Monitor Messages, web browsers, YouTube, Roblox, Instagram, Snapchat, and more! The app enables internet on your child's device only when screen recording is active. About once per minute, screenshots are saved to your secure dashboard, giving you peace of mind and creating opportunities to get to know your child's online world, talk about online safety, or to set restrictions if something becomes an issue. Encourage accountability and build digital trust instead of fighting over screen time.
Instructions:
1. Setup Apple Family Sharing using your iPhone/iPad/Mac.
2. Install this app on your child's iPhone/iPad and follow the instructions on screen.
3. Check screenshots on admin.livingroomapp.com
Pro tip: You can make it so highly-trusted apps don't require screen recording. Add these apps in Settings->Family->Child Name->Screen Time->Always Allowed and on admin.livingroomapp.com.
Notes: The Phone app is always allowed. Copyright-protected video-streaming apps such as Disney+ and Netflix may be used but cannot be monitored.
