OurPact

OurPact is a parental-control app for families managing children’s devices and online activity across iOS and Android. It is a particularly good fit for households with several child devices, especially mixed Apple and Android setups. Its range of controls is compelling, but the free plan is tightly capped and content monitoring is reserved for Premium+.

Overview

A child profile can connect to multiple devices, including a mix of iPhones, iPads, and Android phones or tablets. That makes OurPact more practical than a one-device-per-profile setup for families whose children use both a phone and a tablet. Paid plans cover up to 20 child devices; Free is limited to one.

OurPact is a product of Eturi Corp., founded in 2015 and based in San Diego. The company says data is encrypted and personal information is not sold or shared; screenshots are kept in an encrypted gallery. Those assurances matter for a service handling children’s location and content, though families should still weigh whether screenshot-based monitoring suits their privacy expectations.

Key features

Screen-time and device controls

Daily limits and schedules support recurring rules, while instant blocking and unblocking gives parents a way to respond outside the routine. Device safeguards can prevent deletions and disable selected functions. On iOS 18 or older, tamperproofing prevents removal without parent approval, a useful extra for those versions, but not a basis for assuming the same protection on newer iOS releases.

Location and content monitoring

Live location, location history, and alerts for designated places combine immediate whereabouts with a record of movement. This breadth is useful to parents who want location tools alongside screen-time rules, but may be more oversight than some families want.

Premium+ adds content monitoring using screenshots, OCR, AI flagging, and custom detection for harmful content. The approach reaches beyond blocking apps, but screenshots and automated flagging make privacy and review of flagged material important considerations. Premium includes location sharing and screen-time management, but not content monitoring.

Pricing

OurPact is freemium, with a 14-day free trial. Free costs nothing and covers one child device, five manual blocks per month, and one automated block schedule. That is enough for a narrow setup, but the monthly manual-block quota and single schedule limit ongoing flexibility.

Premium costs $6.99 per month or $69.99 billed annually. It supports 20 child devices and includes screen-time management, location sharing, and device safeguards. The annual price works out to $5.83 per month, but requires the annual billing commitment. Premium suits families who need broader device capacity and location tools but do not need content monitoring.

Premium+ costs $9.99 per month or $99.99 billed annually, with the same 20-device capacity plus content monitoring. At $8.33 per month when billed annually, it is the option for families who specifically want the screenshot and detection features; others can avoid paying for that extra layer with Premium.

The 14-day trial has no stated price. Free-tier limits are defined by its one-device, five-manual-block, and one-schedule caps.

Platforms

OurPact supports iPhone, iPad, Android phones, and Android tablets. Pairing multiple devices to one child profile, including devices on different operating systems, is a practical advantage for mixed-device households. It does not cover desktop platforms.

Who it's for

OurPact is best for parents who want screen-time routines, location features, and device safeguards in one service, particularly when managing several iOS and Android devices. Premium is the sensible fit when location and screen-time controls are enough; Premium+ is for families that also want content monitoring. It is less suitable for households seeking a genuinely broad free plan or desktop coverage.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Paid plans support up to 20 child devices, with mixed iOS and Android pairing under a child profile—useful for families with several device types.
• Pro: Scheduled limits, immediate blocking, location history, and designated-place alerts cover both routine management and situational oversight.
• Pro: iOS tamperproofing on iOS 18 or older and safeguards against deletion add protection against circumvention on supported devices.
• Con: Free is limited to one child device, five manual blocks each month, and one automated schedule, making it restrictive for regular multi-device use.
• Con: Content monitoring requires Premium+, so families wanting screenshots and detection must choose the more expensive tier.
• Con: The stated supported platforms are mobile only, so families needing desktop controls should look elsewhere.

Verdict

Choose OurPact if you want one mobile-focused service for screen-time rules, location features, and safeguards across a larger, mixed iOS and Android household. The 20-device paid limit and broad controls are its strongest case; the restrictive free caps and Premium+-only content monitoring are the main reasons to compare alternatives.
