Salfeld Child Control

Salfeld Child Control is a powerful parental control software designed to help parents monitor and manage their children’s digital activities on Windows and Android devices.

The software provides a comprehensive suite of tools, including web content filtering, app blocking, usage time limits, activity analytics, remote management, and more.



Parents are empowered to set daily screen time allowances, restrict access to inappropriate websites, and even receive reports on their child’s device usage. On the other hand, children can request app or web time extensions and even receive bonus usage extensions from their parents.

Beyond basic restrictions, this platform offers real-time monitoring, including screenshot capture (on Windows) and GPS tracking (on Android) that can always provide parents with peace of mind that their children are enjoying safe and appropriate digital content.

With support for multiple devices under a single license (and single-time usage allowance), this platform and its streamlined premium usage tiers represent an excellent solution for families with several children.

All new users can test their capabilities during the complimentary 30-day trial.

Installation and Setup

The PC version of this app is very easily deployed to any modern laptop and desktop computer running Windows 7, 10, and 11.

After downloading the client software from the official website or secure FileHorse servers, parents are required to create a master account on the official Salfeld website, and then they can link their children’s PC devices.

A single click activates monitoring, and the system automatically syncs via the cloud.

The initial setup includes configuring basic restrictions, such as daily usage limits and web filters.

To install the children's monitoring app on an Android device, parents simply need to repeat the linking procedure after first downloading and installing the official app from the Play Store digital marketplace.

How to Use

After the setup procedure is completed, parents can manage all settings through the parent app or web dashboard.

They can block apps, set time schedules, review activity logs, and approve usage extensions.



On the child devices, the app always runs silently in the background, enforcing restrictions without constant manual input.

User Interface

Children’s devices don’t have much of a user interface, enabling young users to only interact with the app when they reach usage limits or request time extensions.

On the parent’s side, the main interface is clean and intuitive, with a dashboard displaying usage statistics, active restrictions, and pending requests.

All of its settings are organized into logical categories (time limits, web filters, app controls), making navigation simple.



The Android mobile app mirrors the web portal’s functionality, allowing on-the-go adjustments.
