IPhone 5
Posted on 2012-12-26
Is there a parental security software to restrict certain websites, and a phone locator? We gave my child a new IPhone 5 for Christmas and would like to limit a few things for his safety. Thank you!

The phone locator is "find my Phone," which is built into every iPhone.
For parental restrictions, go to Settings/General/Restricti

There are some limited controls built in-- first thing you'll want to do is read Apple's outline of parental controls:

The main point is that YOU will want to enable restrictions on the device with a passcode only you know right away. You can then set about to see which restrictions you want to enforce. Content filtering is not as easy to do as on a full-blown computer, but there are some 'kid-safe' browsers and such available -- such as http://www.internetsafety.com.
It's important to realize that no matter how strict you set things, some kids are going to find away around any restriction. Nothing is going to take the place of random surprise inspections to see which apps have been used, browser history, etc.
You don't say how old this "child" is, but it's quite a powerful too you're putting in his/her hands.

Depending on how strict you want to be you can also download and use the iPhone Configuration Utility to set tons of different restrictions. Here are the links for the Windows version and the mac version.
