The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) in the UK published a guide in 2019 concluding that while screen time may or may not of itself be harmful, that online safety (bullying, exploitation) and access to inappropriate content is harmful. If the child is of an age responsible to surf on the Internet, the Geniora and Blabloo smartphones can download a secure browser option (free of charge) which has a strong filter that is managed by the parents app, using a system of black and white lists. This can mean that web pages are blocked if they contain certain words, and through the app parents can allow their child access to specific suitable apps or Internet pages at different moments of the day, as required.
