HOW IT WORKS

Create your family account, add your children, and choose the apps and websites you want to allow.
They learn
Your child signs in to a simple, beautiful launcher with only the resources you’ve approved.

SECURITY & PRIVACY
Honest protection, not surveillance.
Kidosk restricts with the operating system’s own mechanisms — and tells you the truth about what software can and can’t do.
Every bypass attempt is visible to you
No software is truly tamper-proof. Instead of pretending otherwise, Kidosk surfaces every workaround attempt so you can have the conversation that matters.
No covert monitoring, ever
No keystroke logging, no message reading, no hidden screen capture, no location tracking. Kidosk is a permission system your child can see and understand.
Data minimization by default
We collect the minimum needed to run your family’s policies. No third-party trackers or analytics SDKs in child-facing apps — or on this website.

Frequently asked questions
What is Kidosk, exactly?
Kidosk is a parent-managed launcher for your child’s device. You choose the apps and websites your child can use; they sign in to a friendly full-screen launcher that shows only what you’ve approved.
Which devices does Kidosk support today?
Kidosk is available first for macOS, with a parent web portal to manage everything. iPad, iPhone, and Apple TV experiences are in development — request early access and we’ll let you know when they ship.
Can my child get around Kidosk?
We use the operating system’s own restriction mechanisms — not just a prettier screen — and we’re honest about limits: no software is truly tamper-proof against a determined kid. What we promise is transparency: every bypass attempt is visible to you.
Does Kidosk spy on my child?
No. Kidosk is a permission system, not surveillance software. There is no covert monitoring — no keystroke logging, no message reading, no hidden screen capture, no location tracking. Activity summaries are aggregate and minimal.
What about my child’s privacy?
Data minimization is a core requirement. We don’t harvest browsing history, we don’t embed third-party trackers or analytics SDKs in child-facing apps, and this website uses zero analytics or trackers.
Can I set schedules, like school hours?
Yes. Tiles can appear, lock, or unlock on daily and weekly schedules — for example, School apps from 8am to 1pm on weekdays — and you can grant time-boxed free-time sessions with a friendly countdown.
What happens when the internet goes out?
Kidosk is designed offline-safe: the last-known policy will stay applied and schedules will keep working locally — losing the network will never mean losing the rules.
How much does Kidosk cost?
Starter is $6.99/month (1 child, 5 devices), Family is $12.99/month (5 children, 15 devices), and Premier is $19.99/month (10 children, 30 devices) — billed annually, with a 14-day free trial. Early-access families help shape what ships.
