Feature Requests

Forums: 

  • General Announcements

Hello,

 

We have started receiving some feedback from our testers, so I thought I would start a discussion forum for users to add feature requests.  While our initial efforts have been to provide a functioning, yet basic solution to the marketplace, we would love to learn which features our customers want the most; that way we can prioritize which improvements to work on for upcoming releases.  Feel free to add to this thread; while you may not get an immediate response, know that we will be monitoring this thread closely.

Localisation?

Found this when I started looking for a parental control solution to my twelve-year-old-kid-with-an-iPod-Touch problem.  Will this app be localised?  Our maternal language is French, and I've been volunteering for various localisations over the years, so don't hesitate to ask.

Features and where is the app?

I registered but can't find the app to download! Where can I get it? Anyway, I'd like to see filters for explicit sexual, profanity, bloody violence in voice, and moving pictures (from songs, video websites, etc.). It is best if the app is transparent in views of the kids. Thanks. Lay.

Thanks for the comment

Hi laye,

Our application is still under review by Apple.  There are multiple categories that our filter supports.  The initial free version will come with preset categories that will be filtered, depending on the filtering level chosen (elementary, middle, or high school).  Upcoming versions will include a premium edition where users will have more flexibility in choosing which categories to block, as well as more customization for their blacklists/whitelists.

Keep checking back and we'll make an announcement the second our app is available in the App Store.  If you've registered, you should receive an email announcement from us as well.

Thanks,

Gene

some feature ideas...

I've been using this browser for a little over a week and it has worked very well so far. Here are some feature requests that I feel would improve the functionality:

1. add a 'history' list

2. remember the website the user was browsing when the application was exited. When the application is launched, it will bring the user back to the same site.

Thanks kyfucious!

These are all features that we are looking to add in future releases of our application (after Apple approves us, of course).  It's good to hear from our testers that the application has been working well!  We wanted to create a "basic" version with the important aspects completed for submission; now, we can focus on the features that our customers are asking for. 

Thanks for the comment!  It helps us to prioritize what work needs to be done to make this application better and more robust.

Filter App Store?

Is there a way to block apps? There are several apps that have an integrated web browser or can do image searches. What is the point of a filtering solution if web searching can still be done from another app?

Apple's Parental Controls

Hi smpardo,

You bring up a very good point.  Our filtering solution has been developed so that parents have an option to give their kids a safe, alternative browsing experience.  That is the reason why parents must disable Safari in order to maximize the benefit of our filtering solution.  That act will ensure that Mobicip is the only way that their child can access the internet with their device (with all traffic going through our filtered servers).

Now, what about Apps like Google?  There is no real way for us to filter content on other 3rd party applications.  The only thing that i can suggest is to also disable the App Store in addition to Safari.  This is an option that Apple provides on the device itself.  Maybe you could institute a rule where your child can only install applications with parental approval.

Here's a screenshot of all the different applications you can disable through the device itself.  I hope this answers your question!

New Icon

We are interested in your application for our teens, but for the sake of their pride, I would highly recommend you lose the smiley-face icon and use something a bit less primary.  Something vaguely reminiscent of the Safari icon might be good.

Sincerely,

Jim Ashburn
