What to know before you start
Preview, not a general-release promise. Windows agent installation, limited-user checks and code signing have release gates; macOS build and device validation also remain. Browser-extension support does not establish device-wide protection.
Check device support →Is the browser extension the full desktop product?
No. An extension covers supported browser activity. A native desktop agent is a separate installation with its own permissions, validation and distribution requirements.
Works better together.
All features →Website and content filtering
Set category rules and website exceptions that fit your child rather than relying on a single blanket block.
