How It Works

Two Apps. One System.

One app on your phone, one on the TV. Your phone is the remote control — the TV enforces your rules.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything parents ask before getting started.

Is it hard to set up?
It only takes a few minutes. Install the TVCP app on your TV, download the Guardian app on your phone, scan the QR code to pair, and complete a one-time setup on the TV. After that, you're in full control.
Can my kid bypass it?
When the TV is locked, it's protected by a 4-digit PIN that only you know — kids can't dismiss the lock screen or change settings without it. Keep the TV locked when you're not around for maximum protection.
What TV devices does it work on?
TVCP works on Android TV and Google TV devices. If your TV has the Google Play Store, it's compatible.
Does it work with YouTube, Netflix, and other apps?
Yes. You can block any app installed on the TV — YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, Twitch, games, browsers, or anything else. Changes apply instantly.
Is my data safe?
Yes. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We never sell or share your information with third parties. You can request full data deletion at any time. For full details, see our <a href='/privacy' class='text-[#e8962e] underline hover:text-[#f0b95e]'>Privacy Policy</a>.
What data does the TV app collect?
To enable the App Blocking feature, the TV app collects the list of installed applications (app names and package identifiers) on the paired TV device. This data is securely transmitted to our servers and shared only with the parent or guardian account linked to that device. It is used exclusively for parental control — never for advertising, profiling, or sold to third parties.
What if I lose my phone?
Just sign in to your Guardian account from another phone. Your settings and paired devices carry over — nothing is stored only on your phone.
How do screen time limits work?
Start a countdown timer from your phone. When time runs out, the TV locks automatically. You can always unlock it early if needed.
Is it free?
The sleep timer is completely free. Features like remote lock, app blocking, and screen time limits are available with a subscription — and you get a 7-day free trial to try everything out.
Can I control multiple TVs?
Currently each family can pair one TV. Multi-TV support is on our roadmap and coming soon!
