Pinwheel is here to solve the kid/phone problem! No more worrying about which parental controls are best for which device. Pinwheel has custom-built a system that helps you teach your child healthy tech habits from day one. The Pinwheel Caregiver app gives you full control over your child’s phone to ensure they have a safe, healthy first phone experience.
With this app, you can manage everything about your child's phone with ease—no more guessing or worrying about how to set up the right controls.
Key Features:
Safelist Contacts:
Your child’s phone can only call and text numbers that you approve. No more random spam calls or strange contacts. It’s all about keeping their communication safe and secure.
Enable Apps:
The app store is a no-go on Pinwheel phones. You have full control over which apps are available to your child. No social media, no endless addictive games—just healthy, useful, and safe apps to help them grow.
Schedule Permissions:
Set specific times when your child can access apps and contacts. Keep them focused during school hours and help them stick to their tech boundaries at night. Pinwheel helps you manage it all without constant reminders.
Create Routines:
Set up customizable checklists for your child—morning routines, bedtime routines, even chore routines! With gold stars and confetti for completed tasks, Pinwheel makes it easy to encourage your child to stay on track and build good habits on their own.
Parent Them Well:
With Live Status, you can track the location of the phone, review text history, and use a Bark subscription to monitor and coach your child’s communication skills. Stay involved in their digital life without being overly controlling.
Pinwheel solves the kid phone problem by offering a phone designed specifically for kids, with tools that help them develop a healthy relationship with technology. You get peace of mind, and your child gets a phone designed to help them live their best life.
