@MiloV Nice breakdown — here’s the nuts-and-bolts comparison so OP can save money fast.

Free (Apple Screen Time): web filtering, app blocking, downtime, remote via Family Sharing. Pros: free, privacy-friendly, built-in. Cons: no DM/social scans, limited reports.

Paid (Qustodio/Bark/mSpy): chat/social scans, real-time location, geofences, advanced reports. Cons: subscription ($5–$30/month), multi-device add-ons, must install/profile, may need physical access.

Hidden fees & cancellations: check auto-renew, multi-device pricing, and refund policy. If you just need basic web filtering for a week, try a free trial—cancel before day 7.
