About KidPair
KidPair is parental control for Android that the child can see. The adult knows where the child is and how much time goes to the phone, agrees on rules with the child, and the child sees every rule and who set it in their own app. No hidden spying.
What it is
- Two apps on Google Play: “KidPair: Parental Control” for the adult's phone and “KidPair — for the child” for the child's phone or tablet. Android 10 or newer.
- The parent cabinet at kidpair.net/app works in any browser, including iPhone and computers. There are no iPhone apps yet.
- Where the child is and saved places, screen time, schedules (sleep, school), a daily limit and per-app limits, a break with one tap, SOS, family calls and chat, battery, tasks and rewards, the school timetable.
- Languages: Russian, English, Spanish, Portuguese.
Who makes it
KidPair is made by the independent developer Nicolai Matrosov (Moldova), trading as PairedApps. Development started in summer 2026; both apps have been on Google Play for everyone since late October 2026. What came out and when is on What's new.

Our approach to parental control
- The child sees the rules. The child's app has a “My rules” screen: what is limited, how much is left, which adult set what. The child app's icon is never hidden.
- Safety is not for sale. SOS, “I'm OK”, the child's calls to family, chat, where the child is now and “Find device” are always free. If a subscription ends, everything set up is kept: the paid features pause and come back once it is renewed.
- During any break the child can still make normal calls and SMS, call emergency services, and use SOS, family calls and chat.
- Honest about limits. Android lets no app promise that restrictions cannot be bypassed. KidPair says plainly when the child's phone is offline or protection is switched off.
Data and privacy
- Family data is stored on KidPair's own server. No ads, no third-party analytics, no Google services.
- KidPair does not read messages, notifications, screen content or typed text, and does not collect contacts, SMS, the call log or browser history. It only sees which app is open and for how long.
- “Sound around” is a live stream on the adult's request and is not recorded on the server.
- You can delete the family and all its data in the app, in the cabinet or by email — here is how.
