SocialScout™ from IDT911 enables you to monitor your childs online social networking and mobile phone usage activity by providing important information on how, when and where your child uses their iPhone. It also includes the most accurate and powerful family locator service available to help you stay better connected to your childs digital world.
SocialScout helps safeguard your childs privacy and reputation on such sites as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram - enabling parents to proactively intervene in situations of cyber bullying, predators, or reputation-damaging behavior.
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

SocialScout and the companion SocialScout™ mobile app are not spyware and will not be hidden from your child. We believe in positive family communication based on trust and transparency.

Kids that know they are being supervised tend to make safer, smarter choices and develop healthier habits.
