Now will show you a complete list of applications that your son/daughter has installed on the device. In addition, a submenu that divides applications by categories appears:

  • All
  • Games
  • Comunication
  • Browsers
  • Social Networks
  • Sports
  • Education
  • Other

Along with the long list of applications you will see a small bar in purple. If you click on the button, the list changes to gray. What is the difference? If this bar is purple, the application is unlocked; if the bar is gray, the APP is locked. So remember:

  • Purple bar: Application unblocked. It can be used.
  • Gray bar: Application blocked. It can not be used.
