Many parent control apps are more like Spyware and are often also exactly that, Spyware which spy on your Kids. Or Google Family Link is also a great example which you can’t remove even if you want too (as parent). I already setup a non-child-friendly blocking DNS and set the Age Limit in the Google Play Store and did all the Privacy related stuff, but I’m still thinking how can I make a Android phone more secure for children? The threads I’m talking about are non-child-friendly content, malware, scams, etc.

    Thank you, that was very informative. What want say, about Family Link, it even disables Safe Boot, so yea. It’s deeply baked into the system when you install it, I just don’t trust Google and made already my experiences with Google Family link, it does what it should, but is also very shaddy at the same time, since not evem as parent you can remove it on the normal way again + Google it’s known for it’s good privacy pratices and I don’t feel comfortable using it.
