Mobile Guardian uses rules to manage the following on the Parent account
- Where child’s devices are monitored, i.e. at what location? – Create locations in the Zones section and then assign them to profiles.
- When is the child’s device monitored, e.g. during school hours? – Create schedules in the Time & Date Settings section and then assign them to profiles.
- Which devices are being monitored, e.g. home owned devices? – Assign devices to rules in the Settings section.
- What is being monitored, e.g. safe content? – Configure what is monitored in the Settings section.
