Preparing for public release

A smartphone, with onlywhat they need.

Choose the apps and internet access your child can use.

  • Set internet boundaries
  • Allow selected apps
  • Protect key settings

The browser is not the only way online

Is removing the browser enough?

No.

A phone has more ways to reach the internet than a browser alone.

A phone configured by parents

You choose the apps and internet access.

KidVeil uses Android device-management capabilities to create an environment where only approved functions remain available. Exact coverage will be documented for every validated device.

Three principles

Three boundaries KidVeil keeps together

Internet access, app access, and protected settings work as one manageable range.

01 Internet

Internet stays limited until a parent allows it.This includes web pages inside apps.

02 Apps

Show only parent-approved apps on the child’s screen.Choose essentials and restricted apps directly.

03 Settings

Make bypass settings harder to change.Network and user controls depend on the supported device.

Bypass protection

Manage settings that can bypass the limits.

Protection does not last if a few setting changes can turn it off. KidVeil combines verified management controls to reduce common bypass routes on supported devices.

Available controls vary by device and Android version.

  • Limit new user profiles
  • Limit USB debugging routes
  • Limit unapproved installs
  • Check safe-mode behavior
  • Protect network settings

Keep the useful parts

You do not have to block everything.

Parents decide which everyday features stay available.

“Just 30 minutes.”Then the limit returns.

Temporarily open internet access when it is needed, then return to the previous limit when the selected time ends.

  • Open access only when needed
  • Return automatically when time ends
  • Set a different rule for each app

Initial setup

A guide to installation and setup.

Device-management access requires a careful first-time setup. Follow each step, then verify that protection is active before handing over the phone.

Local First

Your child’s personal content is not collected.

KidVeil applies parent-defined rules on the child’s phone. The information below is excluded from the current product’s data collection.

Not collected as product data
  • Visited URLs
  • Search terms
  • Message or call content
  • Contacts
  • Photos or files
  • Location

Existing limits keep working offline.

App and internet rules already received are designed to keep running on the child’s phone when connectivity is lost. Remote access is limited to delivering new rules and checking the state needed for management.

Security, stated plainly

Know what protection covers and where it ends.

App and setting controls apply to legitimately managed, supported devices. Attacks that modify the device itself are outside this scope.

  • Common internet workarounds
  • Changing managed settings
  • Adding users or installing apps

Outside the current claim

  • Recovery resets
  • Rooted devices
  • Bootloader attacks
  • Firmware modification

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

A thoughtful girl resting her chin on her hand
Which Android devices will be supported?

We are targeting Android 13 and later. At release, only manufacturer and model combinations that pass hands-on validation will appear on the official support list.

Can calls and text messages remain available?

Parents will be able to choose which essentials remain. Calls and messages can behave differently across manufacturers, so the verified result will be documented for each supported device.

Do limits keep working offline?

App and internet rules already received are designed to keep running on the device. Delivering a new rule or checking remote state requires connectivity.

How is this different from Family Link?

KidVeil focuses on managing app launches, internet routes, and setting changes together on supported Android devices. Compatibility with other management products will be documented by device before release.

Can it prevent resets or rooted-device attacks?

We do not claim protection against recovery resets, rooting, bootloader attacks, or firmware modification. The current scope is to make common app and setting bypasses harder on legitimately managed, supported devices.
